Hi Nick

I have some friends near me who want to sell their roller and living van. Its an 8ton
compound Fowler roller, I think its built in the 20's, its not been to a rally for many years, but had a ticket on it last year. If you are interested I can find out more info.

that would be brilliant, thank you very much, sound just what im looking for, i already have a 1914 aveling and porter living van which my partner and i currently take to the local rallys behind one of my tractors but the roller sounds very interesting. when you get a chance please feel free to contact me or send me a contact number for yourself or your friend who owns the roller to discuss further. hope to speak to you soon.
many thanks in advance, Nick
