My stage 1 has a wooden tray. Is it possible this is original?
As far as I know, no trays were made by Leyland Australia (or whatever name they went under at that stage), all were supplied locally by dealers or perhaps at state level in some cases, and often to customers specification. Most would have been steel, a few aluminium, at that stage, but it is quite possible that a wooden one is original. Particularly if you mean wooden decking and sides with a steel frame. By the time of the Stage 1 wooden frame trays would have been quite uncommon, but would still have been made. Some customers preferred wooden trays as they are a lot quieter than metal ones, despite the greater durability of metal.Quote:

I bought it off a cane farmer too;)Quote:

Likely to be - the sliding glass does not get broken that often.Quote:
