My folks bought me an OK Cub 049 for my 13th birthday, we were passing through Johannesburg in early 1956 on our way to Kitwe, Northern Rhodesia. It came all in bits and you had to assemble it youself.

I must admit I can't remember it ever actually RUNNING! That didn't happen until I saved my pocket money and bought a Mills 1.3 diesel mail order from UK. That was the motor that started it all for me.
