I recently bought one off eBay - it's sat in the shed for a while but I've made a start to get it back roadworthy - so if anyone is interested I'll pop up some pics

Hi Charlie - it was in Hobart - I was able to get a transit permit and drove it to Devenport and crosssed to Melbourne on the ferry! Its got a fair bit of surface rust but I have stripped the front guards etc and the vast majority of the A pillar and box section is remarkably good for its era - bit of glass and aplate - she'll be OK. Got a stanbdard 250 loghead & 3 on the tree - is that standard?
