Hi All, Just picked up this little gem,in dusty but overall great condition with just a few parts missing,namely the winch hook and driver,not a big deal but also the shovel and axe from the back and the side mirrors which are rarer than hens teeth so i guess i'll have to find something similar online or make them.My qusetion to you all is does anyone have a cheetah and can provide me with detailed photos of the shovel,axe and mirrors for reference? thanks.

I have a Cheetah, and can take pictures for you.
I will not have time today, but have a look here in the meantime:

Fantastic! Thanks Lars,just what i need.

A quick update,mostly finished in a little under a week,i stripped,cleaned and rebuilt the chassis and electrics,soaked the tyres in glycerol and thoroughly cleaned the body and painted the interior grey and did a bit of detailing,just waiting for the driver to arrive and the missing tools,still have to make the mirrors.Very pleased with it,i have been after one for ages.

Very nice work, Stivie!
You even have the Cheetah specific black front guard.

Very nice work. This classic deserves your treatment! Enjoy

Awesome!
