Re: Dexta loader
Mill loader, it looks as if it may suit a 35-135 as well, or its been a massey sub frame modified for a Dexta.

Re: I Need Some Nuffield Info
It might have a 1500 diesel motor,same as Austin JU vans of that era,yes it is smaller than a Dexta,it will be rarer by maybe,200 Dexta's to 1 Nuffield.

Re: Diesel Injector Pump Colour
They were Blue,and the radiator hoses as well and their retaining clamps, I think even the fan belt had traces of paint when Dexta's came here new. So black starters,dynamos,hoses, are no no's if originality is the goal.
