VH ABZ was built as an F24 K. . The serial number shows this. Fuel tanks were smaller than the 24R, Several other changes also. Aircraft "upgraded" to 24R by addition of 200HP Ranger and Aeromatic prop. Original engine was a Ranger though smaller HP. My Company (Mainway Advertising P/L) owned the plane for almost 25 years.
