Anyone know anymore about Ridolfo's 12V Hayes, like what era are we talking about?
Also, does it still live or whatever happened to it?
Probably had a very interesting life.

Don't know if this was a V12. But it's a Hayes and it's Ridolpho's. Photo taken 1975.

Like the look of the Hayes, typical no-nonsense "brutish" style about it so common amongst US Iron of the era

All those wheels and STILL no roadholding! Must be cheap tyres?

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

Guess n the conversation went like this:

Chainsaw man: need a Franna crane to grab sum tree sections as I cut m

Craney: Frannar not available but will send the 100 tonner
U can have it @ the same rate as the Franna ..... we wont need to send the backup truck with counterweights n landing leg pads



The rest B came history
