The copper exhaust pipes on the Villiers Twin could withstand the heat, even with a 180 degree bend. I know brass has a lower boiling point, but they should be okay, if not slightly discoloured
My Dad pick this up this morning for a tenner. All I can find is a grainy image of a lawn edger that was once for sale, so any ideas? i assume it was one of those engines that was bolted to many small machines.
it does sound great with that huge v-twin diesel turner engine
I dont actually have a picture of the tractor, it probably had a crowd of people around it when i went past with the camera
Yes indeed, it is homemade and was on eBay a little while ago the front wheels are hydraulic driven and it does have a trailer with a matching turner v-twin mounted on it. The same model engine that drives the hydraulic pumps for drive and steering.I don't know why I didn't include a picture of the whole tractor, I'll try and find one tomorrow :DJ
You can see it in action in the video!
The 29th annual Rudgwick Steam & Country Show held near Horsham. A very large show that always presents a great amount of variety. It lasts the whole three days of the august bank holiday weekend so attracts a lot of people
Here's their website, thankfully the show is more organised than the website http://www.rudgwicksteamshow.co.uk/
