Tom 215 #1 Posted February 4, 2016 Hi all, Managed to get my hands on a Martin Markham, he started to strip it down so it's in pieces, luckily it's only the big bits he's taken off so far. Gearbox seems OK, engine turns and has good compression and the rams for the loader are in good condition. The bonnet has headlights which look factory, were these an option? I only have one picture but will get some more of everything when I unload it all.. Tom 3 C-101plowerpower, Triumph66 and Cub Cadet reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Triumph66 1,256 #5 Posted February 4, 2016 Nice find Tom. Loader as well. Is it the one from down in Sussex? From Sussex? Not the one from Hastings last year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #7 Posted February 4, 2016 I'm having a guess here, but I think this may be the one in East Sussex last year around May. Was up for grabs. Tom may have got it off whoever got it from there. 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocboni 257 #8 Posted February 4, 2016 I think your right Norman, it was on the VHGMC. I was tempted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom may have got it off whoever got it from there. Yes I saw that advert on eBay last year and was tempted as my brother lives in Sedlescombe and could have stored it for me. Good find with FEL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #10 Posted February 4, 2016 Thanks for all the comments guys. There was one offered up on VHGMC but I'm 99% sure it wasn't that one as it was a lot rougher. The one on ebay however I didn't see, did it have a red bonnet? As this one does.. Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #11 Posted February 4, 2016 The one I'm thinking of had a blue bonnet and reddish/brown mudguards. Don't think it's the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #12 Posted February 4, 2016 Tom , from memory it was all blue and I can't remember if it did have a FEL on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #13 Posted February 4, 2016 Andrew. Are you thinking of the one Paul got? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocboni 257 #14 Posted February 4, 2016 This was the one on the vhgmc, it was in East Sussex. 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #15 Posted February 4, 2016 Andrew. Are you thinking of the one Paul got? No as Paul bought a much better one than the one in the Hastings area and I see Ricboni's post is different to the one I saw last year. This was the one on the vhgmc, it was in East Sussex. image.jpeg.Is that still available? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocboni 257 #16 Posted February 4, 2016 Don't think so, he was talking about scraping it, someone asked a few weeks later and he had no reply. This was at least 5 months ago.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #17 Posted February 4, 2016 Don't think so, he was talking about scraping it, someone asked a few weeks later and he had no reply. This was at least 5 months ago.. That's a pity. Whereabouts in East Sussex was it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
