Thread: Horse drawn vehicle models

In spite of much research, I cannot find any contact details for "Radish". Is there any one out there that knows of this person? I would like to contact him to see if there are plans available for such a vehicle.

There is two of us who will be very grateful for any help...
Thanks in advance.

I went to school in Longreach with a bloke called "Radish."
His real name was Russell Ivers, try that, you never know your luck.

Thanks Gents... Am following these leads right now. Some look interesting, might even have to have a go at one myself..... yeah right, as if I don't have enough irons in the fire now...
Wonder if you are allowed two retirements????? ?
Jim
