Thread: Series 1 SWB

That is a nice '50. It deserves to keep it's original generator and regulator. These are date stamped and compliment the vehicle.

Looking like that you need to keep it as original as you possibly can

Yeah looks excellent I'm very jealous

What is the chassis number , if it is a 1950 it has the wrong front guards & motor but still a nice looking S1,

[QUOTE=JamesM;2516285]Thanks for the very helpful info. It's an 80" and the steering is so slack that there seemed close to 180 degrees of free play, so driving on the freeway had me looking as if I was having some sort of convulsion (according to the missus). I'll have a closer look at the brake - so far I've just slackened it off. I'll also get the regulator and wiring checked to see exactly what's wrong with the charging, so lots to do! I'll be driving it on road as well as around the hills so am putting indicators on - it won't look 100% original but will be safer. Think I also might need to put seat belts on to carry little grandkids? Have also replaced the exhaust.
I don't think photos really do the cute little thing justice. It's something I remember from my childhood at uncle ("Big") Anthony's farm (a very long time ago). "Little Anthony" called it the "Oggin" when he was aroung 3 years old, for reasons that are unclear, so this one will get the same title.
I think the hi james i would not be too concerned on in correct engine the number should start 061-------------- can source ji
