Lordmacclesfield - your earliest one is only 4 chassis numbers away from my "Gus"
Gus is 143800259. ;)
As above, he originally had a 2L.

Very interesting my Series 2 is 143800485. Its amazing to think these CKD units would have been rolling off the assembly line at the same time. Tell me do you Series 2's have the Series 1 gearbox mounts? And do they have the horn under the left front guard in a really hard to reach place? Do you have the badge on the firewall which says it was built by the coach builders in Sydney?
We should have a "Show us ya... Early Series II 2L" thread... :DQuote:

If so I may have seen them some time ago....

My old 58 with a 2ltr engine lives on Straddie and if I could buy it back I would and I would fix what I did to it when I was young and stupid.
11A Experts
My 11A SWB HT is chassis 24302377a, and engine 25131001b.
So what year is it exactly guys??
cheers

I would think 1962, but that is just a guess - it is only the 2377th CKD RHD 88 2a produced, and I think the b suffix came in about '63.Quote:

Does anyone else have the time to take on a '58 Series 2 complete with it's original 2 litre motor ?
I now have one too many projects and I'm considering whether I keep the S2 or let it go.

You should keep it. :)
Its a rareish truck and besides, you're tempting me and I only just sold a Landy to make room. :(
