Acres of old tractors at this show and a small but interesting old plant section, first time I have been up close to a Priestman Mustang 120 and amazed how modern it looks .

Great photos Craig thanks for posting them I love the Priestman Mustang it has one of those weird linkages on the dipper ram to bring the dipper arm in closer to the machine; I always thought that was a strange idea.

The guess looks like a one off conversion using a lorry cab and railway line among other things!

It had a plate on the side saying 'STANHAY' .
It was some sort of crane operated by compressed air maybe ?
The jib was laid behind and I think they had took it off to look at the engine.
They had the head off the petrol engine, shortly after first pic they had it running just !

Nice! Thank you!

Just for interest, Craig, the small 3 wheel orange Aveling Barford Dumper is a PB, short for Power Barrow. Also called the Dumpling !!
The first ones were pedestrian controlled. The operator walked behind the single driving wheel.
Later machines had a seat as in your photo.Some 1200 were made between 1949 and 1958.
