Leyland Laird lorry engine, and gearbox. 6 cylinder diesel, was working fine when we turned lorry into tipper trailer rather than try and keep it on the road. Again, been stored inside ever since. Have advertised it elsewhere, offers.

Fisher Humphreys belt driven hedge cutter. I've shifted this from pillar to post for the last 25 years, and now its either a new home or the scrap man! Rams are shot, having lost all chrome, no pipes having been nicked for other things, no valve block either. Scrap price only, £25 and its yours. Save a bit of 70s farming history!

I need the crimper/conditioner fingers - black plastic fingers on the double rollers above the blades. The one in the picture is missing them.... These normally get a fair bashing so I may have to try and source new - but if your machine's were half decent it might be an option..... I only cut a few acres of grass each year.

Well mines still got the rollers on it, which have plastic interlocking sections, is that the bits you want? I'm more than happy to get rid of the whole thing for scrap price if you want it, I always hate scrapping something when its a pound to a penny that someone out there wants it for spares. The bed is OK on this one too, its the main drive pivot point thats gone.

PM me if you are interested and I can send you some pics etc.
