can't figure it frame looks like Winget but rear and seat don't match ![]() rear fender look Barford ![]() but nothing fully matches if JCB (or somebody else) can't figure it maybe just list by the engine -- Last edit: 2024-10-12 20:32:48 |

Gut feeling it is a Johnson. |

^ if it can't be found maybe we should list it a Petter AVA ? was searching Johnson but didn't find any like it |

Why would you call it after its engine ![]() Almost every British dumper had a Lister or Petter engine. -- Last edit: 2024-10-22 22:14:39 |

in case it can't be found , there is not much visible of it, the rear fenders look Barford , thicker main frame Winget but it doesn't match with anything fully this frame suggests Winget but rear doesn't match , neither the seat support ![]() -- Last edit: 2024-10-22 22:20:20 |

But it would never be found if it had Petter as make because as a make it does not exist. At least if you put Winget a Winget expert may come across it and say it is not a Winget. Many British trucks had Gardner engines but I would never call them a Gardner ! Look at the rear view of orange Johnson 3E half way down this page ,same mudguards, rear bumper and tow hook. ( It is not a 3E) https://www.oilyhands.co.uk/Johnson_Machinery_Survivors.htm Also the JCM1500RG from 1980 has similarities see ![]() I think it is an early Johnson 1.5 te dumper . -- Last edit: 2024-10-22 23:30:24 |

^ maybe the engine cover was removed ?? or this model didn't have one to start with... wheel arches match , bumper hook is same position and bucket shape generally matches too ![]() ![]() the rear bumper itself differs a bit, seat structure also differs but those are more minor things -- Last edit: 2024-10-22 23:47:55 |

If we called it a Johnson who will argue ![]() |
