Re: Put 'em to work pics !!!

Well my 63 works for its living; couldn't justify keeping it if it didn't.

Hauling firewood seems to be a recurring theme, us Brits like to do this dressed in "traditional" costume.....



....likewise building houses. Had to be careful of low bridges on this trip, luckily it was only a couple of miles!



Now these old 305 engines like a drop or two of gas, so for longer trips a reserve tank is essential.....



.... and since I couldn't figure out a way of fitting a HIAB crane, tipping off dump bags of building sand has to be done the old-fashioned way!



Finally, a nice atmospheric shot; I'd just bought a mixer off e-bay from Cardiff (about 60 miles from me) so we stopped for a burger and a brew on the way back. Could have been taken anywhere in the USA I guess, but it's actually Bridgend in Wales.
