What you have seems to be. 1961 suburban , however the hood may be off of a lawn ranger as the 61 models had a small square hole on the dash for the throttle & choke controls . As previously mentioned spares will be difficult to find over here in UK , so you will probably have to look in USA for parts but the shipping costs will kill yer . nice find though , well saved

Awesome Nige , great to see another one saved

Your attention to detail Dicky amazes me .

Thanks guys , went to Haynes motor museum for the day , great place to visit

Have a gooden mate ,

Here’s what I’ve been doing through the winter months , almost finished , just a few bit of timber work to do and then varnish the wood. Its a replica of a 1910 model t Ford , built in 1958 , although there are a few different modifications and Addons but it’s a work in progress . I lined the cab area with new leather seats and oak trims , added a brooklands windscreen and also some old brassware, Just in the process of making the cover for the Briggs & Stratton engine which will be disguised by the wooden box on the back .

Cutting reel could have come in handy Chris

Funny how you fall into this hobby by accident Chris, my story was pretty much the same by starting with a commando 8 & knew nothing about them then started a bit of internet detective work to find out abit more about them it Turn out that there are a couple more people have the similar interest and I think it’s great watching the hobby grow to what it is today . It’s great to see some of the younger guys wanting a wheel horse as far too many youngens are too busy with their heads looking down into a phone and not seeing what’s going on around them . great hobby

Happy Christmas girls , hope you all got what you wished for

Looks like you had a good grilling from gabies grill chris

Wouldn't mind owning it when it's done chris

Be a shame to sell them chris , I'm sure you can come up with another great creation .

No I didn't buy it , would have liked it though , out of my budget at the moment ,

Badgers get busy in autumn ,we have loadsa potholes in garden , my blind dog chases them off each night
