Engines &Tractors for
Sale - 16th March 2007.
Ben Coetzee of Welkom is selling his collection. This consists of about 26 stationary engines and 2 tractors.
The engines consist mainly of Lister
A, B & D models and Wolseleys (covering 8 different
licencee's such as Trojan, Senator, Wolseley, Southern Cross etc.).
Other engines include a Fairbanks Morse Z, an aircooled Coburn
and an Armstrong Siddeley aircooled diesel.
The 2 tractors are a Ferguson Vaaljapie complete with original 3 furrow (10") mouldboard plough and original P.T.O. pulley which was awarded 9 out of a possible 10 points at the Clocolan show. The other tractor is a 1954 Massey Harris 744 which was awarded 8 out of a possible 10 points at the Clocolan show.
The engines are excellently restored and in good running condition. Some are on wheels and others are on skids.
It is not often that a collection of this quality comes on the market in South Africa and collectors are urged to avail themselves of this opportunity. Ben has not taken any shortcuts in restoring any of these engines and most are fitted with new bearings, pistons, rings etc. Feel free to contact Ben to discuss any particular engine with him.
