Runs and mostly stops!

Restoration almost complete. Took a while! Minor brake leak from one of the rear hubs. My dad tracked down lots of original parts.

Hey Matt that looks really good - has taken you a while but has turned out well - the start doesnt sound real good though. With the small generating capacity of the generator, you might want to change the Hellas on the front to LEDs.

Glad to see it up and running.

What on earth are the two blue things in the cab? I thought the four wheel drive, front and rear differential lockers were green and yellow? The front diff lock lever looks a little bent from the original shape. If you did want to make the levers green and yellow, Plastidip - liquid plastic make suitable colours and it dries nicely on the bends unlike Heat shrink tubing. Not that it matters at all! It's your Haflinger and you can deal with it the way you want.
It's nice to see another one driving around. Mine has been sat on the driveway for nearly a month now - Might get to work on it this weekend.

Ahhh.... the blue thing is just a steering wheel club lock style anti theft thing resting between the seats :) Yeah the levers are just wrapped in green and yellow tape. Might look at plastidip at some stage.
