Kivells Vintage Sale - 10 Oct 2015
Just been over to Kivells sale at Dingles this mornin. I couldn't stick around to see the roller and portable sold but I'm sure somebody who was there will post prices here.
A lot of interest in Aveling & Porter 2018, originally a Mowlem owned engine then spent the rest of it's life in Leicestershire before going to current owner in Bristol who has owned it since the 70's: The Marshall Portable is Britannia type, 58922 - part restored: The most interesting lot to me were these plates off Burrell Gold Medal Tractor, 3375: This was in interesting engine, I have this picture of it when it was with with original owner E.H. Jones of Newton undertaking war work in Wales: It was then sold to showman Elias Stokes in Southampton who fitted dynamo bracket and full length canopy and renamed it Tarzan, it had further owners after this and was cut up very late on in 1957 in Hampshire.

I don't think you would want to do much roading with it but if you want one of the oldest, most interesting rollers on the rally field it is the one to have.
Best not speak too soon but there were a few big hitters there this morning so I might guess where it is headed to if it sells.

Gone to Rob Rymer so I've heard, so to a good home. Well done that man! You could put her in a mock up of an old photo & not notice the difference , truly the mark of a good restoration.
Also the portable to Mark Fellows , well done again Mark!
