Hi Im new to this but thought you might be interested in the two machines I own.
The first machine I acquired is a Priestman Cub VIc Dragline built in 1968 and first sold to North Yorkshire Authority.
The Cub is powered by a Ford 2701E 4 cylinder diesel engine. The Boom is 32 feet in length and is of tubular lattice construction. It carries a 1/2 cubic yard bucket.
The Muir-Hill 10B Dumper I bought last year(2006) and has suffered from being outside for many years.
The drivers cab was completely destroyed by rust and the rest of the tin work has suffered as well although
most of it can be restored. Mechanically the Dumper is sound and runs well, its based on a Fordson Major tractor
skid unit. The engine is a Ford 592E 4 cylinder Deisel.
The dumper is an ideal partner for my Priestman Cub and I plan to demonstrate both at Vintage Working Days in the future.
John.

Hi Martyn,
Sory for the long overdue reply to your message requesting pics of my Priestman Cub 6c dragline & Muir-Hill 10B dumper.
Ive been working away and only just logged onto the site. Ive tried uploading pics onto this site, but for some reason it doesnt want to accept them. I will try again though.
Regards,
John.
