Thread: Wiles Senior cooker.

Yes that was us. A damp but enjoyable weekend.
Here is our setup


Was this your 101?



This was us at the 2013 Guyra event. We cooked up some roast lamb & sold hot lamb & gravy rolls to the troops.



I need to chase up a proper army awning rather than that plastic one!

Couldn't make it this year, but hopefully next year will be a goer.

Stuffed up again! I will get the hang of this eventually.

Yes that is us...we were asked to go this year but we had another trip already booked with our club. Which was good as the 101 ran like a piece of **** so it would have been a bit hard to take all the way to Guyra. Maybe next year...

Does anyone know of a restorable wiles junior thats for sale? I remember my old club used to have one that went out to club events.
The first time I saw one was at the Bankstown airshow in 91 and since then my father and myself have wanted to get one.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

A nice restorable Senior in northern NSW. Comes with lots of hard to find accessories. Good price, but of course transport home will add to the final price.

I think I now own the one you refer to. Fully operational. I can't remember the previous owners name, (Wolfe?) he was in the Blue Mountains somewhere. His family sold it after he died about fourish years ago. He used to take it regularly to NSW events. There was a complete junior for sale on eBay recently by a NSW collector. Asked too much and I don't think it sold.

That would have been the one. One of the club members told me that it was coming up for sale at the time, I told him to let me know when it did. Unfortunately for me he forgot about it.
I did have a look and bid on the one on ebay, it was a great example however you are right, it was just to expensive for me.
I have thought about a Senior, but I think my NORFORCE HJ47 would need an engine rebuild before she would haul it at the moment.
Thanks for the replies guys. If anyone does hear of a junior that comes available, could they let me know.

Stumbled across this one the other day.
