Looks pretty good for a 57 model. Has it been restored?

I might take it to my own bonfire.

I believe it was restored 5 years ago.
It still isn't up to my standards though, so I will fix it up a bit more.
It has 1 seal leaking, PTO out the back.
There are heaps of cheap parts available on eBay too, as India made these up until 2012.
The guy I bought it from had it for 3 years, but only drove it twice to launch his boat.
