Well ADRs aren't retrospective, so it would be (ADRs only mandated seatbelts from 1/1/69 - and even the Front only).

However - looks like my IIA had mudflaps from the start - certainly looks like it has some in this pic:

from what i understand, (in Victoria) mud flaps are required only for the real wheels. they need to lower than the rear axle and as wide as the outer most part of the tyres (same as flares). i would expect all states have the same rule.

Yes that is my understanding also.

The rear wheels act to block road muck being thrown up from the front wheels.

Interestingly is was one of the differences between the HiLine Range Rover models and the standard Range Rovers. The HiLines had the front mudflaps where the standard trim ones didn't.

These seem to be Series 2a? (April 1963 by ARN contract date)

Certainly looks like it - but I just said I hadn't seen them. Certainly they have been optional for a long time.

Given that this vehicle was a first unit of the census type built by Alexander Perry & Sons, it is likely that it was specially prepared for the hand over ceremony.

In philisophical logic terms, maybe it's a validity argument.

Therefore Abe is black! ....... :angel:
