Hmm,well, i did spend a good few years in my younger days on Fraser island,not much else there except Series LRs,the occasional Tojo or Patrol,and many logging trucks,Army trucks,etc.And some we used to call Blitzes,from memory.
Surf fishing was fantastic.[biggrin]
You must have a very good L322... This is a sedan; add 20-30k for a 2 door.Quote:

There is actually a dump of a lot of the logging/sand mining machinery on the island,including a few LR bits and pieces,a short walk from one of the main tracks.
Very interesting for those that are interested in that sort of equipment.Pretty tough on machinery in those days,lots of broken diffs,etc,etc.
On the island, corrosion would have been a big issue, on top of the mechanical torture.
I can remember when every saw mill seemed to have a Blitz.
That was the asking price, but what did you actually pay?Quote:

I did say the Chevy would have been worth a lot more than my (or any) L322.Quote:
