Lovely! One of my all-time favourite aircraft, the Grumman Ag-Cat was the first aircraft designed purely for agricultural work. The sound the Pratt and Whitney radial engine makes is gorgeous! Makes me miss my early career in Africa!

I assume she is a crop duster as I cant see a plough hitched to the back, Hm, wonder if that donk would fit in my triumph
What sort of age would the plane be?

This one is a crop-duster Don, and was made in 1976. The design is about 20 years older than that. The spray gear is what you can see at the trailing edge of the lower wing.
And good luck with the Triumph fit! It'd be an interesting adaptor plate for your gearbox, not to mention the engine mounts!
