Marshall 10t Slide Valve Roller

Canopy is removed, but easily bolted back on but it does require repair. Brass work all polished, sundry items largely blasted and primed.

The scarifier is with it, an original Marshall rear roll is now fitted as opposed to the A&P one shown in some photos.
The engine is located Chacewater, Truro and available to view by serious purchasers. Looking for offers late £30’s as is and want a straightforward sale.
