'Well Jimmy these Brays look really mod for 1964'

Is there anyone who can tell me the model of this Bray. I also need to know what engine ( make and model) it's eqiped whith.

After the dignitaries stop slipping around in this short video a Bray HL23 backhoe loader gets to work 2.09 min and what an ugly beast it is !

In the right conditions that would have some push (for a Major powered tool) with all that weight over the back axle! Thanks for the photos and links guys.

Hi Craig and Pete ,
Thanks for the pic and the link, but it's not an HL23.
Like the 23 it has the Sherman backhoe but it's mounted on a BL30 loader. If you look closely at the loader arms you can see it says Bray Loader 30.
I,ve certainly never seen that combination before.

Spotted last weekend, is it a Bray or a Weatherill ?
....

Think it is a Bray not a Weatherill

This is a Bray 10000 with a perkins engine that I owned from 1994 till 2011 .

Was the Chaseside 700 loading beet in the family as well?

The Chaeside was owned by CIE Coras Iompair Eireann the state transport company .or It may have been a contractor working for them . The slide was scanned backwards .
