...she looks nice '56 .. well worth the effort to get her back into shape i reckon.....cheers and thanks for the piccy

This one was at a clearing sale near Millmerran about 15 months ago I think it sold for about $3000

Went out Friday and got a couple more pics. Still yet to get it going. Recon it will be easy to get it running. Anyone know anything about NORTON TOOTING?

Sorry TOOTILL!!

At least 250 searchable references to them on the digitised newspaper website Trove. Earliest reference 1945, latest 1955, mainly in respect to tenders for machinery to councils. Search deep enough there are probably advertisements from them also. What is it you wanted to know?

I just never heard of them and I did the google thing. Just thought someone might know more than I have found. Was wondering what happened to them. If they were bought out and by who or what?

For anyone that cares. I went out today and got the old girl going. Didn't take to much, the engine was a little stuck. But when we got that sorted it fired right up.

Well done. Is there any other work needed on the motor and drivetrain?

Couple of water leaks. Nothing major, it's got a new radiator in it (well newish anyway considering it's been sitting for 8 years) Couple of little oil leaks, the little gearbox down on the a frame for turning the circle, it's mount has been broken off. But apart from that not much wrong win it. We had to pull start it as the starter needs a little work (the mighty hilux was a good starter motor, even if it did take a bit to get moving). I did a little grading on the road into the homestead. Not to much didn't want to make a mess. Lol.
