Re: Another id question ..
From the date of the engine it would seem to be 1975.
There is a plate on it saying it was assembled by a company called Brittian ltd in Dublin.

Re: Another id question ..
So people , any more ideas on this ? As I said it was assembled in dublin 1975. It's quite unusual in that it has an anti clockwise rotation lister engine. Just got it going this evening . Needs a bit of tidying up and some brakes. It's about 3 years down the line for a full restoration though so I might just get it serviceable for doing a bit of tidying up around the yard and garden in the meantime. Any ideas appreciated.

Re: Another id question ..
Another thing about this dumper that might jog some memories is the driving position . It's on the left while most I have driven are on the right . That and the anti clockwise engine and the assembled in dublin must make it a bit unusual ?
Just doing the head gasket on it at the moment which has brought its identity back to my mind !
