If anyone knows someone who wants to sell a power wagon, please let me know, been looking for a while..
I went into Wonnangatta Station in one in the early 70's. We must have cut a foot off 50 or more logs as most were only cut wide enough to allow a Landie or Yota through. The owner had a couple of honed out hubs to use as free wheeling hubs. I see that one has real FWHubs ??...
These are formidable performers off road. Remarkable when you consider how long ago the basic design was laid down.
There are heaps for sale in the US...Quote:

Pete (LR V8 and AGAS 5) took an image of an FQ15 at the 2007 Cooma Motorfest.
