1936 Vickers Carden Loyd Utility Tractor
believed to have been left in Dunkirk after being captured by the German forces. Found in France in 2007.
This very rare vehicle is fully restored with a restored engine, new radiator, clutch, dynamo, starter. New electrics with original dash instruments.
It has new running gear bearings and new rubber moulded rollers. Runs well, can easily be transported on a car trailer as it is small, only weighs 1.3 tons.
It comes with the full kit including, deactivated Bren Gun and deactivated 303 rifle. It has the original, brass identification plate.
A very rare and unique machine for the serious collector, to be seen to be believed, ideal for the 75th anniversary of Dunkirk.
Extensive photographic record of restoration.
GREATLY REDUCED price on application.
