I've always meant to build a 6-wheel pick-up but never got round to doing so.

 

Love the Stobart rig, but it needs a girl's name to look right. How about 'Big Bertha'?

Some lovely examples there, especially Stobarts, but all of them are really good.

 

Here's the 'Semi' - part of Doug Martin's Private collection.

Doug was kind enough to open his shed to us last year on a Moke Outing that was organised over a week. Very nice man and very kind of him indeed.
