rollers

Post #1 by Baloo » Sat Sep 06, 2025 9:12 pm

im not sure where to put this so will try here
amongst my collection of junk, sorry treasure, ive got these 2 rollers collected some time long ago in history, i dont really know what ive got but would like to get at least one of them working, one appears to have an old ford engine and the other what looks like a morris minor engine, would that have been original ? or someones adaptation ? are there downloads anywhere for these machines, i would like to strip at least one of them and repaint and possibly re engine
so one is an AB and the other a greens

i also found my old 6D hibernating in the bushes

so what would the greens roller weigh ? i need to think about how i might move it around

The Aveling-Barford might well be Major powered, probably best to start with it. More pics of both would be great.

I think the AB one has a Ford pop engine, more pictures no problem, will take the strimmer up and beat the hedgerow back a bit
