Past Present and in Between in Pictures (Part 1)

Buzzer:
Bit of unusual rare bit of kit offered for sale near me in Winchester an Opperman cart driven by a single cylinder 500cc JAP engine it has four forward gears & a reverse, apparently favoured by market gardeners & chose this as it was quite light over the ground and therefore made less mess

Its surprising how many small manufacturers there were about building odd little tugs/trucks like these.

Another one was Martin Bonser.
