they don’t seem to have been made in large numbers probably due to the similarities it shared with the Lawn Patrol
Hi Paul
Great images and video! Great for the record.
Damn that
Possum urine! That's an odd name for Queensland beer ...

From my research, it would appear that Scouts appeared for just a couple
of years. They sold alongside the
Cub, when the
Patrol name was
dropped.
My best guess is that the Scout appeared to
camouflage the bad
rap that Patrols were having due to 'engine issues'.
By late 1958, the Scout name
disappears, and the Patrol name re-appears.
The Scout, then, was a Patrol by another name.
Please keep us informed about the Callaghan Collection.

Jackp.s. I notice a
special Victa there. I'm a big
fan of those...
