Oakley77 Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Good evening, I have always been a fan of military equipment especially heavy stuff but having only owned a C reg ex army Lanny it's been defender it's been a baron few years until today when my brother and I bought two of these. Looks like built in 1993 with a Kubota 2 cyl 600cc engine. When I can figure out sending photos properly I will send some more. But in the meantime any ideas what the hell it is? Quote

Oakley77 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks lads, it all helps with the research. Gonna have a tinker with them and sort the hydraulics out. Engines run fine but they need a good goin over. If anyone has any more info is be glad to hear. 1993 but the looks but could do with manufacturer, model etc. thanks, again. Quote
sirhc Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Sad to see them looking like that, they were tidy a few years ago when going through Withams tender sales. Quote

yoz1881 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 I'll give you 500 for one with the chicken hut on I might drive over and have a look later......... Quote
Oakley77 Posted February 28, 2015 Author Posted February 28, 2015 No thanks Yoz, but I will give you a ride round the field for £5.00. Got the one of them driving yesterday in forward and reverse (a bit Heath Robinson until switches etc arrive). Going to get the other running today hopefully then decide which one to sell once all work complete. Most likely sell the radio jammer unit (chicken hut). Quote
