No, not the Ford Mavrick tow vehicle ( although I don't think you fellas would get that one right!! ) I'll give you a little closer look in the trailer to help.

Dave,
This is the start, " a diamond in the rough?? ". Although from the expression on my face in one of the photo's I don't think that was the thought running through my mind at the time.

Is the tow vehicle {Nissan Patrol/Maverick} a cut down wagon Jetback?
I remember looking at a pic of a 34 Roadster in Eddie Fords Holden book.
Looks like u are doing a great restoration!

Dear Stu:
See Norm Darwin's book "The History of Holden since 1917" Page 44. The picture there shows a 1934 8-40 roadster, Holden bodied. Looks an awful lot like your pictures.
Regards, Dave Corbin

Manuel,
The tow vehicle is a Maverick cab chassis with the cab extended, not a wagon cut down ( although I have seen that done as well ). There was a body builder in Perth who did these conversions before Nissan/Ford etc realised it was a good idea and started producing them ex factory.
