It'll be interesting to see what sort of condition they're in when they dig them up. I presume they would've been prepped for a sea journey so they should be good.

The arse is going to fall out of the second hand Spitfire market now, glad I didn't buy one!

Never leave your wingman Mav !!! err sorry should have been in another thread

Don't worry mines got a custom paint job so it's worth heaps

So, all these Burmese and no one would spit on them if they were on fire aye.

Wow, how good is that

Because they ride cruisers.

Heard about this about 6 months ago...some guy reckoned he knew where they were but didn't know if he could get them without them being snaffled by the govmnt.

Seems he got that fixed...

Be great to see the out come of this story,its great when history is bought back to life .Theres a rumour i heard years ago that the army burried jeeps and other stuff covered in grease and wrapped out near Peak Hill,Parks area but if it was true you would think they would have dug them up by now,but the rumour also said no one knows where excactly.

Looks like someone has tried to find them. There is a f$&king big hole left behind in Peak Hill

There's stories about caches like this all over the place.

There are some structures near Lake Bathurst (just up the road from WP and that there is a stash of all sorts of things. The 'official' story is that they were emergency fuel storage tanks in case Au was invaded during WWII.

That big hole was dug by hand too if your referring to the old open cut gold mine or if referring to the town itself ,wel its a hole too

My hometown is Christchurch and that's where the seppos have thier airbase for Antartica, there' s always been a rumour of tons of brand new tools etc. being buried there ... If they don't spend the budget for one year the next year will be cut, don't know how true it is.
