What thickness steel should it be? Always wondered cos we all have to fix rust at some time.

1.2mm on the floor and 1mm elsewhere or the equivalent 'gauge' which I think is 18 and 16. In repairs though some people like to use a thicker metal, but for the little that I do myself, I tend to stay with 1.2mm

Like Nick, my money's on it being a Mini and Moke World shell.
Take a look here (bottom of page) . Wheels are the same too.

Looking at the photos, i'd say you are right Nick.

Thanks for solving that one.

I was watching a YouTube video from NFSA - National Film and Screen Archive , Australia and happenend to spot this Moke in the background... The You Tube film was Circa 1970.

Saw this Yellow Moke parked in the car port near my relations house in Bondi over the weekend.. What an apt car for the beach side !!

Hi,

I was recently at the Mildura Airport and noticed this nice little Moke in a car park outside a hangar. I didn't get to meet the owner, but I did get a look at some nice toys inside the Hangar.

Was just finishing breakfast this morning and spotted a nice Yellow Californian Moke with a black roof slowly driving along the foreshore of Mooloolaba beach on the Sunshine Coast.
Couldn’t stand up and get my phone out quick enough for a pic, but I can guarantee there were smiles everywhere

This image just appeared on Facebook, information indicated a parade prior to Oran Park (NSW) race meeting in 1978.
Do we know anyone that participated in that parade.
I most likely went to the Oran Park meeting, but was into Mini's back then not Mokes.

My wife spotted this one over the road from her work, getting some exhaust work done.

It's more interesting if you attach the photo Moe
