1972farming

I see Steve that you first registered in July was it so where have you been, busy with the house

Yes I registered and went on forum a couple of times .But I was heavily into eaby so concentrated on selling stuff .

We were also busy on house .Over Christmas I thought I would check this out and now I'm hooked !

Superb

Re the Fordson I repainted I have just looked abck and I think it may have sold for ?84.00 to a guy called Frank Brehrens ?

I also sold a box for a JCB Fastrac to a bloke called Barry Stunt on the 16th April .!

Instead of repeating myself, I'll just say that all the models you've posted up this week are brilliant

Thank you very much .I wish I found this forum before ,I could have sold a few to some of you guys .

I plan to get going again soon so watch this space .

did not know till after i married my wife she don't do ironing. :(

You poor thing ! :'(

Thats it get em involved quickly gives you more excuses to play with the tractors :D

Yes hes tractor mad ,hes been lucky today ,there have been tractors up and down the lane past our house hauling sugar beet .

Back to school for him tomorrow though so no more waving at tractors !

one way to strip the old wall paper. :D

Yes I will try and sort out the photos of my mates HITACHI HYMAC sat on a low loader behind his Massey .

That HITACHI was a beast ,a couple of pushes and a cloud of dust and that was that ,we were homeless !

i think you can go back all the way just put in the dates. from / to in your pay pal . ;D

Cheers for that I think it was a paypal sale so I should be able to find it .

Ironing no thanks, wheres the missus not at work or something daft

She came home from work at 8.00pm ,now shes ironing !

Yeah we were going to move last year when the missus got pregnant again, all packed up & ready to go but fell through at last minute so we built an extension instead turning our 3 bed semi into a 4 bed 3 receps & study semi instead, more roon for you know what, ol tractors by the way if your guessing.

Yes we moved into this house in October .I bought a bungalow up the road and my parents live there .They gave me their old house so we knocked it down and rebuilt a new one .Thats another reason I haven't been building many models for the past year .

e-bay

Yes ,how far can I check back on ebay to see how much I sold it for ?

Just make another and add it to the list of requests, better send the missus out with the kids so you can get some time on these, oh no theres always work i guess

Yes the trouble is its my job to get the kids school lunchboxes sorted in the evenings .

They are back at school tomorrow so I've just done my chores for tonight .

I don't mind that little job ,its ironing I can't stand .

For how much roughly any idea

Or was it 20 quid to your best mate :o

I am not sure but I think it was around ?100 .

Can't remember where to though .

:oExcellent look forward to that, and then, come on youve got plenty of ideas swirling around i can tell

Yes I am waiting for a reply off my mate re the County 1474 and Roadless 94T I made for him in 2004 .I want to photograph them for reference and to post on here .

Good lad

No worries Barry ,I've just been going through my boxes of junk looking for castings .

Its a nightmare when you move house !

Is that the correct shade of blue always tricky to see on camera, is that the DDN with the grey rear linkage uprights

Now I am not sure if the paint is correct or not .I bought a tin of each off you know who from scaledown but when I painted the tractor I had forgotten which colour was for which model !It still sold though .

Looking good 1972, NH2 know's what I need now,?

Thanks for your comments .I like the 6600 with the q cab in place of the original .Its a bit fidly to do but worth it in the end .

Hope you like this picture of my son Charlie .It was taken 4 years ago when he was 2 years old .

Ever since has been a John Deere nut and has his own pedal powered rolly 6410 with loader .

The tractor in the photo is one of three which Dave Hiscock usually brings to our Village Autumn show and is the tractor which Britains based their current classic model one .

Maybe a County 1884 ,I have one semi built .

did you mean something else then

Well thats what I've been at tonight in between posting on here .I have sorted out which parts I need to do some converting .

Haven't you had enough kids yet :D not learnt your lesson have you :D

OOH That dirty mind of yours !

Finally, 135 + scraper

Now I do like that ,I have built 4 or 5 MF 135 s with duncan cabs and sold each one .

I still regret not keeping one of them !

Another Nigel plug eh ???do you get free wheels each time you mention his name

I hadn't thought of that !

I know the answer though !

Ask for a transfer

I hope to be back working nights in a couple of months ,until then its on the kitchen table each evening !

Very nice models there ,especially the 1800 .

luck old you ;D ;D ;D

Trouble is I haven't been on nights for 4 months and thats knocked my production
