Slumbering Westwood

This lives at work, it hasn't moved in the 9 1/2 years that I've been there. I'm not sure if the deck is still around or went in a scrap clearout.

Looks tidy. Do you know if it runs?

I don't know if it runs. I don't THINK there's anything wrong with it, just never used after the grounds maintenance was contracted out years ago. There were a couple of Hayter Harriers and IIRC a Ransomes Certes as well that got sold/given away. There's a trailer behind it as well.

Maybe worth seeing if you can buy it and the trailer. Even to sell on. I would.

That's pretty incredible, almost as if it had just been delivered from the factory haha. All original paint and engine bay look very tidy, with everything looking original. Thanks for posting!

Bit of an update on this.

 

My boss is talking about clearing out the garage where this lives and scrapping it. I'm trying to persuade him that it is worth hanging onto until this virus thing is finished and someone could collect it. I have said that I would deal with getting rid of it. Any money raised would go to the amenity fund of the care home where I work, this pays for activities/trips for the residents. I would like to get an idea of value, maybe that would persuade him it was worth keeping for a bit.

 

Thanks.

If it runs and everything is ok, I'd say £100 - 150 at least.
