Around the time my shite took to the road this was taken off it.

Similar condition to my house.

Anti-pikey camouflage. They may struggle getting it on the back of a beaver tail Transit mind. Is there enough of it left for anyone to identify?

Improved cooling. I was rumbled at this point so no photos of the International tractor I’m afraid.

Have crane will travel – further down the tow path just before Christmas the same year.

As was this. Quite suited to its environment I thought. Couldn’t get in for a closer look though. Not showing on DVLA vehicle enquiry.

 

That'll have to do for now...

The portable steam engine may be the remains of a Clayton and Shuttleworth. it looks very similar to this one, bottom part of chimney, flywheel, road wheels etc, but appears to be a twin-cylinder model.

Sorry about the framing, access was a bit tricky. I’ve got more of it somewhere though. Turns up at World Series and similar. Last time I saw it there was a huge lawnmower in the back.

Highly unlikely seeing as I appear to have just bought a house on this sceptred isle. But I would definitely smoke around in that, fitted with a 1.6D lump for extra opting-out-of-the-rat-race points 8)
