Thread: New Toy - 1957 107" ute

Anybody know what an original series 1 key looks like? I found this one wired to the drivers side firewall stay mount today.




Windscreen off, wiring out, fuel tank out, almost ready to pull the firewall to get it sandblasted.





And I got my child labourers painting rust converter on the back half of the chassis as well. Cost me 5 dollars in pocket money though ))

i have a key similar to that on my 54 s1 it is for the doors.good to see the kids getting involved even if it cost you $5 lol

Firewall removed yesterday, couldnt psych myself up to get the gurnie out, too cold.



Welded up a few extra holes, repaired around the pedal cut outs and loaded in the ute to go to the sandblaster.

i have just sold my jag/daimler and it was only worth $5.00 more that i paid for it, after a $20K restoration?
Rumour has it that land rovers are worth more.........

ouch

tote im loving this thread its great,keep it up
cheers tony

Found a "C" on Saturday....






Unfortunately nothing else that made more sense. The C was white on the blue layer so I'll see what I turn up on the bottom and on the other door. Maybe it was the Cootamundra NRMA truck. Will ask some questions when I am down there for their swap meet.
