Hello from downunder

Hello all. I'm from Melbourne, Australia. I was drawn to this site by the marvelous renovation blogs. Just love those 'blow-by-blow' descriptions, photos, and the quirky spelling! I started life as an engineer and have had an interest in heavy military machinery from boyhood. The old collection has grown slowly over the years from a single wrecked chassis to two fairly compete sets/piles of parts - for a brengun carrier (Australian version) and White scout car. Also have a Stuart M3 hull & motor - no turret or upper structure - but it is almost uncut which is more than you can say for many hulls hereabouts which were variously turned into bulldozers or farm tractors with an oxy torch. Also have a very cut and hugely modified Australian Cruiser tank (AC1). This one was rebuilt into a mobile crane. That it has survived suggests this was fairly successful. Another love is old trucks from the dawn of truck-time... and that's another story.

Regards Robert Stewart
