Does it look like an original front axle?

If that is a confirmed original Roadless and all the numbers on the axle and the tractor tie up, you can quadruple that price! We have one in the village and he has been offered £80,000. There were only 92 made.

But it has to be all original.

What should the numbers be? Does anyone fancy buying it as a shared project?

You need the tractor serial number and the number from the brass plate on the side of the axle. Then send them both to the people who now own Roadless details. Used to be M Pantry but can't remember off hand who it is now.

The other area to check is the reduction box which could have major cracking. These are not available.

another rare Dexta looks longer than standard or is that smaller wheels?

Think its just the picture. Think he is way out on numbers made too. Vineyard tractors were reasonably common and come up at Cheffins Sale from time to time.
