I Couldn't Resist And The Missus.............
I couldn't resist and the Missus is going to divorce me when she finds out.
I went down to Alice on the weekend, while we were the my sister was telling the missus about all the things she bought on facebook buy and sell, and unbeknown to me she put the app on my phone.
Monday my RDO, I was just walking back to the shed with a cuppa coffee when the phone dinged, I glanced at the phone, saw facebook, nearly didn't take any notice when I saw Hercus lathe. I read the comment some bloke said he was interested and wanted a look, So I google the phone No and said I will buy it.

How could any one dump a Hercus in a recycling yard?
Now it only 500 km from it new home.
I couldn't leave the poor thing out in the 40°+C sun and dust could I.:ciggrin:

Nice find, come on Mark, spill the beans, what did you pay for it, good money or scrap value
You could always tell the missus, that it's mine and I'm letting you use it, till I can get up there to pick it up!!!!
If she asks, tell her I'll be there on the 32/13/2019

Is that a long bed as well or is it just the way that the photo was taken?

She is an ARL, doesn't look too bad a condition, I had to pull her to bits to get her off the trailer.
Looks like hasn't been used for years going by the build up of dust on her.

Hello Mark,
How on earth have you kept that from the missus. You will have to let me into the secret I can't keep anything from mine.
Nice scoreBest Regards:
