Oh well, I s'pose back then you could drive anywhere so ; why not?

I reckon you need the big tinny strapped to the roof though.

Your right about the buggy. It would have done a lot better with some flex. I guess they tried to keep the weight down.

I'm working on a Tinny and a few other small items that were familiar at the time.

The tinny looks like a Quintrex so should be a few about I hope.

Definitely use it - love the idea of re-enactments too.

Did that thing have any suspension at all? A bit of articulation certainly would have made it a lot better.

No suspension travel at all

It did have four wheel steering though

The V Wee engine must have been injected or had a non standard carby as would not have run very well in that situation if its any thing like my type 3 powered buggy I have here.

I have had a few goes but not happy with the result as yet. I'll try scaling the image and touch it up some how.
There should be no copyright issues with this as Mal is happy for AYI to be restored

Saw`heaps of your truck on Leyland Bros world tonite on their trip to Cameron's Corner. They also had a tray back with a similar rego number AYI??? the rest is obscured by what looks like a winch pully.

You know what is rather frustrating and some what upsetting

Because of my location I do not receive free to air TV let alone digital

In all fairness one should be allowed to record or capture it for me without getting into strife
