Messers Aylward and Heanor...

Kavannaghs...

Going loco...

This little crane is hidden off Richmond Road...

Waiting for the ferry...

I followed this one for a bit trying to get a good shot...

Just as well as he ended up in East Point instead of the Tunnel...

And was grateful when I reversed him back out...

A lone DAF in the snow...

No idea what this is but there's a clue in the sun visor...

What weight is that little crane rated to lift and what sort of reach does it have?

It's my brother-in-laws so I'm not certain, think it's 1 tonne and around 4.5m. Can't tell from reading anything on the crane, it's all in Japanese! Don't think he paid much for it but they are around €60k new

That's what he told me, he bought it s/h but I suspect the new price was Yen, not €. They are pretty rare although, one was auctioned here last month, seems they are worth €7000 s/h. Found a spec sheet on an Aussie crane hire site, lifts 450kg. http://www.independentcranes.com.au/pdf/450kg.pdf

Nice pics, I know the guy who owns the Nuffield tractor shown above. Surprised he brought that along, as he has a few really really nice classics, including a very rare (4 in the world) vauxhall coupe from the 30's.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I suppose , I like old cars,trucks,tractors and bikes. That just dont excite me though maybe because I have never seen or even heard of them before . What is special about them?

Whats that about half a million miles? It must have a well known engine then or it should be a well known one. I'm only asking now not putting it down and a photo is not always the best way to make a first impression.

Wasn't having a go. I thought the bus was the star of the show. Something different and spotless inside and out (and underneath!:)).

A few pics from this weekend, some of the lads decided the extreme course was too tame so made a new one with a couple of 90s, Zooks and an amazing Toyota based buggy with a phenomenally good young driver.
