hiya,
Pat great stuff as usual, read in one of your posts that you had a spell of breaking Scania 80s, have got to thank you for that i drove a very early 80 for Bowkers in the late 60s would have been a great motor up to about 6 wheeler rigid but at 32 ton in articulated form was a load of rubbish and the hot spanner was the best thing to befall them, good on yer mate.
thanks harry long retired.
Hi boys
Pat,I used to move those crushers, tandam and tri axles. I bet that took some getting out,always top heavy and the older ones no hydraulic legs or brakes
That track shovel was it a Komatso, used to move a Cat D8 trackshovel not many of those around as I believe they only made a hand full.
Keep the pics coming
Regards Keith.
