    Wanted: heavy tilt tray/beaver tail Brisbane to Lithgow and return.

    My armoured vehicle club is again involved in the Lithgow Ironfest in a few weeks time, this year a group of German WWII re-enactors are joining in and we need to get an OT-810 (German halftrack) from North Brisbane to Lithgow and return. 14th to 18th April.

    Either looking for a heavy tilt tray or beavertail truck and driver or a truck for rental/hire where we will fly up a driver.

    The OT-810 is:
    • Length 6m
    • Width 2m
    • Height 1.75m
    • Weight 8 tonnes.

    The driver would be welcome to camp over the weekend with AAVA share meals and enjoy the companionship and entertainment (including scenarios with blank firing weapons and pyrotechnics).

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    If we go hire we'll have to fly someone up if we don't have anyone locally in Brissy.

    As for the costs we have a couple or three thousand dollars available no problem but much more than that starts getting awkward and will reduce the number of vehicles we can take up from Sydney. We had a lead on a prime/mover float on club plates from Brissy, but traveling so far would require fitting a few new tyres and make it nonviable. We are recognised club for club plates in NSW and can invite a truck/club on Qld club plates for the task and as long as we don't "pay for the truck" we can compensate the owner for fuel and other running costs as well and feed and accommodate the driver without breaching the rules.

    To wet the taste buds, the vehicles we are taking up are: WWII M3 Stuart tank, WWII M5 halftrack, WWII LP2a universal carrier, FV703 Ferrets, FV432 APC, FV601 Saladin, FV603 Saracen and the only operational FV722 Vixen in the World. As well as the OT-810 (Sd,kfz.251 German halftrack) from Brissy.

    No worries Carolyn, you and Harry have already been very helpful in trying to find a likely lad!

    It's regular carrier has offered to do the job for $4,500 but that will mean the probable loss of 3 vehicles going up from Sydney.

    With the tilt of the earth's axis Katherine may almost be across from Brissy!

    Which ever way it goes, if we need a self drive with no Brissy driver available, airfares will have to be paid from somewhere.

    Paying the airfare from Katherine for a Recce Mech may turn out preferable to a novice from Sydney.

    Honestly give freightseek ago it costs nothing to join the carrier`s pay a percentage for getting the job to freightseek . You get company`s of all discription`s quoting .
    Some for backloading or others looking for work .
    Most will have insurance thats for you to work on .
