Just picked this up yesterday and it has intersting cut outs around the headlights far too neat to be a home ventilation job I am guessing its around a 55 I couldnt find a chassis number but I didn't have a good look having too much fun driving it around the paddock.
Sorry for the late reply but I didnt get back to the farm until easter
I spent easter giving it a bit of TLC and the little truck just drove so well the only problem is my three year old son can start it by himself, lucky he cant reach the pedals or he would be driving it down the paddock.
Black betty got a make over during the ekka week new seats, fuel tank, radiator and a full set of lights not to mention all the oils, filters, brakes. We did 111 miles in the week and did 50mph not bad for a farm truck.
wow looks alot better being green. looks not to bad at all over all.50mph that is pretty good to. the good thing with these are you can leave them sitting for ages and they normally start straight away.i have one like this but it has a s3 engine it sat for 7 years and started straight away pretty much and then again it sat for 18 months and started straight away, and they are fun to drive espicially with the doors off and the window down
Big thanks to Dave for fitting some new second hand tyres Black Betty will drive much safer now. Tasks for Easter is get the brakes to work better and maybe a new set of spotties.
