Looks like the engine needs more than a couple of cans of "Start ya bastard!"

It suprised me too a bit though when he gave it a couple of squirts with the start ya bastard (as pictured) turned her over and fired within a couple of turns .Ran reasonably well . He sold it to a collector a couple of months back but not yet collected for the princely sum of $500 .full set of original wheels on the tray area and a few other bits over in the grass
The original canvas door frames had sheets of gal bent on to them and had the curtain frames there as well

You are getting close to Coonabarabran when I start to see you post pictures of trucks I know! Used to drive that old green Blitz as a kid during wheat harvest.
