Hi Jack,

I'm also interested in the 3A tractor. It's the PTO/winch drive that is the biggest mystery to me. Were you ever able to get pictures of the winch on the tractor in the South Australian museum? Hope you can help!

Cheers,
Allan

Cliff, Allen,

I have th winch fitted to mine now. Just need to finish off some leather boots for the levers on the cab floor. I will get some photos after Corowa. I have a mate (Ronin Mawson) who may let me put the truck on his truck hoist and I will be able to get perfect photos of the underbody showing the layout of everything. I will put the photos on MLU for all you modellers. The rear body of the MH is unique to these trucks. You also need to take notice of the uniquely Aussie roadster style cabin. It is slightly longer than the standard Ford cab and is squared off instead of rounded on the rear corners. The extension is of timber frame and sheet metal. The seat is also non standard.

Thanks very much Jack, that would be great. We "scale historians" appreciate your efforts!

Cheers,
Allan
