Show your tractors

The matadors look blooming lovely. What makes them so effective? Did daves one pull or winch the stuck tractors out?

[PeteB]

Winched them both out on tickover!

They ate awesome I don't know anything about them mechanically or what makes them so good but I've seen them rip big lumps about as if they're matchsticks

They sound great, would love to see one in action.

Thanks, nptimber, I knew you'd come up with the goods!

 

How is the restoration of Pogles Wood coming on? Am I right in remembering that it has Mat axles now?

 

You really do have some fantastic vehicles!

[nptimber]

The restoration was being carried out by my father but we lost him to cancer in september we are hoping to continue with the restoration after things return to some sort of normality again probably after christmas . the unipower suffered with poor axles when we ran it and rear halfshafts were impossible to find so dad fitted eaton axles from a thornycroft, ten stud wheels and bigger brakes being the improvements on the old units .

Will post some other even rarer unipower pics if anyone is interested ?
