For sale, Hamworthy compressor set, HESTAR No 0

Gentlemen,
I have a Hamworthy Compressor set on an original cast base, Model HESTAR No 0 removed from Jordans Mills, Broom, Bedfordshire used to supply compressed air to start Allen Diesels driving grain mills. The engine was restored to working condition by a friend in Middlesborough and I bought it and brought it back to be where where it worked in Bedfordshire.
Its in full working order and the single cylinder compressor works and is powered by its original 2hp Lister D, it is now to heavy for me to rally and comes on a trolley built to make it mobile.
The copper plumbing was fitted so that the water runs from the tank to the original pump throught the compressor and onto the D finally running back into the tank. When in the factory it would have had a header tank full of water to cool the compressoer and engine.
I'm looking for £450 ovno offer for the set, If a video of it running is required I will send a copy.
If you are interested then PM me.

That's a nice looking setup, I wish my back would let me own a heavy engine.

Great looking set with good history! (Also too big for me)
