Another new (old) toy

[Stihlben]

Damn iPhone, posted it before I finished, can't remember what I was going to say now.

I think it may have started life as a tanker of some description, due to the massive springs compared to my other one... It has 3 air-actuated levers on the shelf behind the seats 1 actuated the hydraulic pump.

You going to try a pto chipper on it? Reckon it might eat transfer boxes quite quickly!

Only one way to find out... Will only be a small machine, anything remotely log like gets saved....

Stunning looking truck mate. Is it ok to go into LEZ?

Ag registered so lez doesn't matter

I have an old military spec mk and we run a civvy one as a bowser. The military one was a 330 non turbo with a 4 speed gearbox and painfully slow so I have put in a 500 tl turbo engine and a 5 speed overdrive gearbox. That should liven it up a bit:thumbup1: Cab needs to go back on when the weather breaks. The pto should be ok on the chipper because it does not use the gears in it, it just runs straight through the t/c off the prop.Henry Potter is still going and he is the man for bits.

God knows why, I've already got one but this seemed a bargain.

Fitted with a 3 way tipping body, 3 point linkage and pto shaft. Nice big atlas crane as well.

I used to work for d Collins years back and came across that wagon 2-3yrs back in a yard near Bradford. I thought it had a lot of potential and value but my bro -in-law didn't agree.

 

Good to know it's going to be used again
