G'day gml and Glo Mod Gadge

Gadge's engine dating does make the engine original.
These machines were introduced in 1965 - as the very first
model Mayfair. This model was made up until 1968.

They ran this model - with the odd handle - until 1968.
I believe the original catcher was metal (Model 9 catcher).
My best guess is that the plastic (Model 15 catcher) was introduced
with the new Mayfair (with conventional Victa handlebar) in 1969.
Catchers were fully interchangeable.

This machine is well worth saving. I might add, the handle is
a great design - particularly for making quick turns.

I have written on the first model Mayfair:-
