Sad really, not a great deal of effort to get some of that bringing some cash in. You see a lot dotted abt the land and they did good work back then, why leave it rusting further into the ground?  K

Have you restored much vintage plant Kriss?

I've ended up with this old girl , apparently runs so not sure if to sell or just use it with fertiliser spinner and harrows and such like . 1952 model obviously been restored at some point . The old fella seems to know his way round it so time will tell.

I’ve got an old genuine 6v dynamo for a fergie somewhere, think its at my dads, in original grey clothing if i remember rightly!

Went to North Wales fr this , looked like it had be dropped out of the back of a Hercules at 400 feet. Never seen a bit of kit so abused .

Nice lady from Grimstad sent me the old 1980s posters for it

Everything had been smashed with hammers, no shaft keys on spindles so god knows how it was expected to work . Relined the brake bands, new bearings , K
