Hi
there is one north of me in Manitoba Canada Not sure if it belongs to Roger Haines that used to run the Roadless spares business in England years ago. or Graham Caitlin who moved here from Linconshire a few years ago. I know it's one of them that has it. saw it at a local show when it was a special ford year .
Regards Robert

One is offered at ebay.uk at a price of 25k GBP

Hi all, I know of a roadless dexta, on a farm quite near to me. They still use a normal dexta and major for all their farming work! Their roadless dexta is locked in a barn most of the time, I had the privelege of driving it round the yard briefly a few months ago. Its totally original, never been worked on other than servicing, its only done just over 2000 hours!
Next time i am up there, I promise to take a picture of it

Here is mine. it was a wreck when I got it with more than 15k on the counter
