Must be the only Mondeo rear bumper without a split or a piece missing and as you say, without duct tape all over it.
Quick buy it and sell it to the Ford museum!

Even the wheel trims are intact. They were made from the same brittle plastic and tended to shatter at the first touch of a kerb.

Returned back to Rusty farm today, most of the stuff is still there, this time I got invited into some of the owners sheds for a look around - you would not believe it.... First up, russian tank (for sale)      My favourite Thornycroft 'Big Ben' (for sale)        And now the barns.... Opperman three wheel tractor anyone?     Random cover off a farm machine  Some of the static engines   One of a pair he had from the MS oldenburg - this was not the biggest engine in the shed  The precursor to the ATOM, and the awesome Nomad - I give you the 3'    ??  Probably my absolute favourite - even the missus liked it      Hub powered bike  Some of the many Tractors   This I could have taken home as well   The owner loved his static engines and wanted to concentrate on sorting out the pre 20's ones, there were maybe 100 engines there, all of them 'would be up and running next weekend' - it was all the usual case of optimism>>>realism. Far far too much for one man to complete in a lifetime, including building yet another massive barn to house it all in - which was 1/4 finished as well - if it gives you an idea of the situation, he was trying to build a machine to grind the concrete floor smooth so that it could be painted, yet there was not a single clear square metre of floor visible in the 200m sq barn! The owner was keen to see some of the vehicles go as they were not 'his thing' - though saying it and actually parting with them could well be a very different matter. A very eclectic collection with some real randoms like a couple of rickshaws, vintage RC helicopters and planes, and a strange 80s electric tricycle with a huge fibreglass boot that in the cold wars times much like the sinclair C5 was probably the solution to a problem that didn't actually exist...yet. |

Mot history says it -50,599 miles 2010-11 all a bit suspicious (117,000 down to 68,000) If Ferris Buellers Day Off taught me anything (or nothing), that's a heck of a lot of running on axle stands in reverse    |

Scammell did come to mind but wasn't 100% sure. Nice old thing.

Another from my walks about. T4 camper been off the road since 2008. Becoming a botanical garden. Has a bit of paper in the window with bold letters saying 'NOT FOR SALE', so I'm assuming they got asked a lot?  |
