[Richard Coutts-Smith]

First time I have ever seen one of these Austin K9(?) here in Australia.
6000 miles on the clock, still on original tires. Appears to be missing mudguards and entry step, tray is not original.
Added battery, oil, water and poured some petrol down the carby, and away we went around the paddock.
Present owner was informed that the truck was constant Four wheel drive, and it was, until we managed to get the lever back to the 2wd position. Judging by the scalloping of the front tires it must have been stuck in 4x4 for some time before retirment.
My information is that they are fitted with a 2 speed transfer case, yet I could not pick any difference in the gearing, is the transfer lever purely for engaging the front diff??
Shown a pic of the front diff as I have never seen one like it before.
Fun drive in the rain and mud, but very rough with out the huge One Ton payload.
