Thanks for the ident S.V:001_smile: just googled it....production started in 1968...safety features included collapsable steering column....one other notable characteristic was that the windscreen wipers lifted clear of the windscreen over 65mph!

I did get a ton out of it, but that was pushing it, dont know what was moving fastest, the speedo my heart or the fuel gauge, apart from the lack of speed for such a big engine and poor fuel consumption, they looked great and sounded even better.

Well let,s see if this works... can,t seem to send upload pictures full size and need to finnish my jungle clearance garden job Near Hampton court post....the first three days were heavily overcast and most pictures appeared dark or not at all clear...in a nutshell i removed about three decent sized garden trees and loads of shrubs...moved loads of shrubs with my helper who did a sterling job of filleting up the brash into the 10 m skip:thumbup1: and on the last day the sun shone! Customer was delighted and was paid well...Garden looked lovely.
