Show your tractors

Bought myself a new toy- slightly modified ransomes mg5 - during the week. No practical reason for it at all, I just wanted it! Fitted with 2 6.5hp Chineseium engines, came with the original engine as well which should work with a bit of attention.  

At £700 I shouldn't be able to loose on it...

Last Saturday I picked up a used 5ft flail for the tractors,  went on a little further to the coast for a wander, some lovely old crawlers seeing out their days launching boats

Just went for a wander, it was last Saturday when it was stupid hot so a sea breeze was bloody lovely. 

No fish and chips, had a lovely smoked salmon roll and an ice cream 😋

Taken from a distance but spotted this Fordson E27N Major mowing hay. Still going strong at approaching 80 years old.

Think the old boy deserves extra points for wearing a flat cap in that weather!.

I missed this post in July - but been fancying one of those little crawler tractors for a while now. Couple more years and I can empty The Boys climbing wall out the garage and have space for a new toy.
