In 1975 Harry Everts won the 250cc world championships as a member of the Puch factory team. This picture is a 1983 Puch MX500 and I reck...

Sorry! That was a poor attempt at a Monty Python reference. I should stick with Austrian off road vehicles.

Here’s a great photo of two Haflingers as well as a 710 and 712 Pinzgauer. It was June 1975 at forestry equipment field day in Myrtleford, Victoria.

Yes our dad (John) was a Haflinger dealer. He sold quite a few - and the odd Steyr tractor too.

Looks like retreads

Credit for the sketch goes to Steve from Canada. He also provided close up photos of factory original hood sticks.

it scares the shit out of me when i see people doing a recovery using a tow ball as an attatchment point . they are not designed for huge loads . there have been a number of deaths and injuries from using a tow ball . please use correct / rated recovery points . https://www.facebook.com/aus4x4sales...

So the "bug" is not a bug-eye. Maybe this brochure predates the determination that larger headlights were required for the US market.

Don't worry we have plenty of mud down here
