ronnie_rotten Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 a mate took me out earlier to see what's left of an old landy with an interesting array of pto pumps, air tanks, dash switches and hydraulic oil cooler, which we concluded from the remains of a sticker on the dash was once an excavator. the backhoe is missing, but the bracket is there and it looks like the whole pto setup, too. didn't have a camera, so no pictures until i can go back. does anybody know anything about these here beasts, or have any pictures of one complete? this is basically just a chassis and pile of panels, but i'd love to know a bit more about it, cos he wants it gone from hhis field, and i don't want to scrap somthing rare through ignorance!

simonr Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 That sounds really cool! Can't wait to see a photo! Re-making the arm would be fairly easy if you wanted to restore it! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeyw Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 There was a Series LR with back hoe at Billing a few years ago. The whole thing was VERY rusty. I believe it is in the custody of Dunsfold LR, although I can't see any evidence on their website. I shall consult my photo archive this evening. I can't believe I would have passed it without taking a photo or few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
