Winget Muir Hill Dumper

SOLD
For someone seeking something a little different.
I believe from late 50’s/early 60’s as the machine is marked as a Winget Muir Hill, so post Winget take over in 1959.
This machine has undergone restoration, I would say quite a few years ago. As such there are a few marks and degradations. However overall this little dumper is bright and smart, rare to find in this condition.
The Petter single cylinder is hand crank only, no electrics. It starts easily, if you are capable of getting a good swing! Has a decompression lever so you can spin it up to speed before switching to compression. It fires easily and runs a treat, completely mesmerising!
The steering box has just been rebuilt, a common week point on these old trucks. Clutch is good with good bite point and the gearbox selects all three forwards and reverse without issue, and even the brakes work.
All tyres are aged, but perfectly good and the wheels are in good order. All rot has been dealt with during the restoration
Due to its size and weight, could be towed with relatively small car and trailer if attending shows. Or for someone with a larger garden, a posh and characterful wheel barrow !
Viewing is welcome. NO VAT.
Part exchange welcome. Loading not a problem. Delivery can be arranged
