Those things rock the house

I remember years ago watching an Alby Mangel special up in Northern Aust somewhere. He had one of those with a tinny on the roof. He would drive as far as he could, come to a river. Drop the tinny in the water then drive the haffy into the tinny - head across the river. When he got to the other side he would drive out of the tinny and out it back on the roof and continue driving

He was in one part in a muddy track. The haffy looked like tipping over, so he stuck his leg out the door and stopped it going over

Super cool stuff That one you have looks sweet

[goodie]

THAT IS SO INCREDIBLY awesome right now.

[landy_man]

Myth, hence the tinnie on the roof for river crossings

Power comes from a 643cc, two-cylinder air-cooled engine. The basic vehicle is a soft-top, but a variety of special bodies and equipment were added by specialist firms. For example, Haflinger fire engines found a role in ski-resorts in the European Alps.

They've never been out of production. They are now built in the UK and have water cooled turbo diesels. Often seen in footage of UN contingents from eastern Europe.
