1941 Fordson
When I saw this vehicle ten years ago the rear tailgate was being used as part of a ferret box. Unfortunately that was disposed of so there is a few bits to fabricate. the condition overall is quite good. These vehicles, (This is the fourth I have had) , mostly appear to have been disposed of to the rural fire brigades and used as fire trucks. Three of the four I have owned had red coats of paint and a few old fellows had told me that they used them in CFA brigdes in Victoria. Apparently ther is one still garaged in Melbourne as a mascot at a Fire Brigade station. (Will follow that up asap). One old chap told me they were good to drive until they got close to the fire and then they had a bad habit of vapourising. I have experienced that myself and like them an electric fuel pump is the answer. Although I dont think they are that great to drive.
