Wasp Infestation.............

Whilst attending and participating in the Warracknabeal Wheatlands Vintage Tractor Rally and Easter Parade (on my 1971 Honda Dax) I came across a Bellett and its owner (from Bendigo ) and in conversation he was able to inform me of a restored Wasp in Maryborough (Vic.) and also another Wasp in Bendigo. I have since spoken to the owner of the Maryborough Wasp and he has invited me to pay him a visit and have a look at his Wasp. Wasps seem to just come out of the woodwork...………..

Fantastic! Please take your camera and show us their beautys. And refer them to any reference for the Cowra Nationals please, the more the merrier!
Pretty soon I reckon we will have found all the Wasps that came to Australia. They are so good and endearing that I reckon nobody threw them away!
Thanks Kerry,
Matt.

That's the Maryborough Wasp. Have known about it for years.

The Bendigo one lives with a couple of sedans and a GT.
Neither owner was interested in the Nationals when I spoke to them years ago

Well that's a very nice unit. Have you put it on here before? I can't remember seeing it previously.
Might be time for a countup! I sometimes try it mentally, but need to get the pad and pen out.
It would be nice to see some pics of the Bendigo cars.
Cheers, Matt.

1990 ish Green Wasp went to tip from Mangalore Airport.
1995 ish Farm Wasp located in the Hills near Lismore Byron Bay area. Unknown where it ended up.
1996 ish Wasp rebuilt by myself but onsold to a guy near Woodburn. May have ended up been the V6 Wasp.
Now, the four at my place.
