Hahaha, not wrong w_f

. She was old when i started at the ABC 25 years ago. Has been used fitted out and stripped and fitted out again several times. Over the years she has been an OB van, tapes truck, link truck, OB van again and now she is just used as a tender. Affectionately called "the merc"

I hope they don't repaint that truck with the new ABC logo... the old school logo suits it
