Default WELBIKE in Australia

Hi,
I was lucky enough to find a welbike here in Australia! Although I have to assemble it the only parts missing are the fuel cap and the nut to hold on the handle bars. The frame number is 2308 and engine number XXE2561. Contract number on plate is 29423/S1649.

I have also managed to recovered the tank number as C5153108. I have read my bike to falls into a batch for an overseas order. Does anyone know what country that overseas order was for? Previous owner has had it since mid '60 in Australia and his father bought it from their "old neighbour".

The bike is still the British brown and I plan to get it assembled and going before I do it up. I do like it how it is so might just leave it in this condition.

Thanks
Darren
