No, not me. It is the Museum of Fire's 1938 crane/tow truck, currently in stripped down mode for restoration.

The poor thing sat in a bloke's backyard under a tarp for about 20 years, so moisture has been doing its dirty work. Fortunately it's good quality pommie steel, so mainly just surface rust to deal with.

Nice looking paint job can't wait to see it back together I've got many good memories of the museum at penrith as the all Chrysler day was held there on a yearly basis many years ago :)
