[Maple Leaf Eh]

Folks, have a look at this example and tell me what's wrong. There are a half-dozen questions that immediately catch my eye.

How does that song go? "He's not wrong, he's just different..."
That is one of the early prototypes, #2 if I recall correctly (I'll have to check my notes).

Lots of differences from later machines and production vehicles, but that's what prototypes are for - make one, let folks try it and say what needs to change to work better.

Cheers

If it’s a prototype, I’d hope it would be stored indoors or cared for better than always sitting outdoors exposed to the elements. That looks like a static display to me.

John McDonald says the same, except he's thinking #3.

I trust John's memory and knowledge way more than mine!
