rog8811 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Not going to happen for me but that is something I would love to have a crack at restoring. Idea of price and location to help others? Assuming somewhere in Spain as it is not that sunny here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signalcorps Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 At first glance it may seem in very bad condition but it is not so, it is perfectly restorable. I know what I have been saying for years, restore a very incomplete and in worse condition. It is quite complete except the radiator that has disappeared, has two carburetors and adapted a distributor in replacement of the magnet. This operation was quite common in the 50s to keep them going after being auctioned by the Spanish army. This, like everyone else, came during the Spanish Civil War with the Italian army, which had already used them in the Abyssian War. The motor turns perfectly with the hand, which indicates that the motor is in good condition. It is located in Madrid and has the ridiculous price of € 12,000 (10650 pounds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark m uk Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 In what way do you consider the price “ridiculous” - too much, or too little? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signalcorps Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 Well I do not know in England but here a complete artillery tractor except the radiator, civil war era with revolving engine and with original registration that can be reactivated is not something that appears every day . The last Pavesi TL31 sold here was sold for much more than double. Now decide if "ridiculous" is expensive or cheap... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signalcorps Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 And of course this "ridiculous" price is negotiable ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things are relative, the one just described sounds in better condition than the one pictured, you know your local market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signalcorps Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 I am glad to report that the tractor has been sold and fortunately it will not go outside Spain. Your final destination when your restoration is finished will be a museum about the Spanish civil war. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark m uk Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 I am very pleased to hear that - and staying in Spain is wonderful news. well done on an excellent job - you should be proud. Do you have a contact for the museum? I have some SCW memorabilia, that they may like. thank you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
