  1. Hi

    I have a Garwood winch which I believe is a 20ton pull. I have a possible buyer for it but am not sure of its value. I have seen a similar working one for sale in the usa for around $2500 which would be around £1500 over here. However mine would need some work to get going as the lever workings are heavily corroded.

     

    I would be grateful for any info regards pricing . The buyer isn't a military collector he just likes old machinery so I'm not sure he would want to spend too much. If he doesn't want it, it will be up for grabs.

    As you can see the winch was built into a heath robinson crane by my late uncle. he used it to build a overhead gantry in the shed behind using 12"x12"x21' pitch pine beams. This was to enable him to lift heavy parts when restoring his showmans traction engine. Unfortunately we don't have that anymore:cry:

  2. Hi

    I live in a village called Banwell near Weston Super Mare. I'm interested in all types of old machinery and have various different vehicles in my collection. My only military vehicle is a Can am Bombadier motorbike a 250cc 2 stroke from the early 80's. My main passion is for motorbikes and anyone with any spares for this model let me know.

    I also have a large winch which I need some info on I will post the details in another post.

     

    thanks for reading;);)
