Working on ID for Jetstar. Unable to read serial number except for final 3. What I have on front of tag is JET *(star symbol) not Jetstar 3 like most. Any other tag similar? Nothing that I have ever seen. Could it be an experimental model?
Other oddity is it has a 20 gpm Vickers vane pump not a gear like most. It did have a loader. Has no pto,belt pulley or drawbar. Has shuttle shift(no T/A)and external power steering pump mounted on crankcase cover. Has foot throttle on right. Standard front axle,wide clamp on rims. Diesel motor and components are same as other 206 diesels. Has the gas crankcase number but webbed for diesel components. Any guess's?
 
Checked tag again. JET then the star. Characters are full height of Model area. On serial area the 3 is half the size of the JET letters. The 3 is also almost on middle of serial area.
 
Found similar diesel with same model "star". It reads JET * 3 IND requiring 9 characters max to fit on the tag. My calculation says no room on tag for JETSTAR 3 IND making 13 so it was shortened to allow stamp. SN who knows? Think I have made my decision to rebuild rather than part. Will take ALOT of building but if don't finish? Only found 2 survivors but they have sn.
 
Found picture of Jetstar 3 Ind gas. If serial number looked closely it has the Jet then Star. Also found another Jet 3 Ind diesel and it also has star. Another fellow collector has later 1970 gas and has no star just Jetstar 3. Theory is all sn prefix 308 gas models (191 made) and 309 diesel (50 made) had star symbol in model number. All later models said Jetstar 3 and there serial numbers were mixed in 283 and 284. No records of how many were made in final 3 years. 1966-67 industrials were not brown belly or yellow. Chassis was painted Flint Grey according to manual.

This 66 Jetstar Ind was the only one of the Jetstar series to have electroluminescent dash gauges.
