That old one tonner is a tough as they come! I learnt to drive in it so its a bit sentimental.
Yeah that GTS flute is where the rust was cut out. It got a bit dangerous as the bottom of the guard was flapping all over the place.
Mum and Dad traded there HG/K/T (not sure which) wagon in on it and bought a HJ Wagon at the same time. I can just remember coming home from Mudgee on its maiden voyage aged 3!
