What's your latest farm/Construction buy in 2024
Steve P replied to trigger82's topic in General Hobby Discussion
My first new model for 2024. Have to say not a bad model. Was not an intended purchase but the price was too good to resist. -
Sad that we are getting US market spec models, 445O looks ok but the others do not interest me at all, Leyland or County next please Britains.

County 1184 / tabmodels
Steve P replied to tabmodels's topic in Latest Tractor Conversions & Scratch Builds
Fantastic models, County's 1184 has to be one of my all time favourite tractors. I would love one in my collection. May i ask is the 1184 bonnet conversion that attaches to a UH 1174 still available. I noticed them for sale on ebay a while back but i cannot seem to find them anymore. I have a spare 1174 that i could convert.- 33 replies

Whats that Ih 1055 all about ?, thats for the US market surely?, can we have something more appropriate for the 100 years of BRITAINS models please..
-
Interesting the earlier ones had working steering, my autoway one has a solid rear axle. Didnt know that.
-
Fantastic array of the lovely old Britains kit Justin and all in excellent condition. Them old models just ooze character.
-
Wouldn't mind one of them but 350 quid?, i don't think so !!!!.
-
Three more recent additions, i particularly like the flying the flag, nuffield, leyland and marshall book a fantastic read so far. Always had a soft spot for these classic British tractors.
-
These arrived this morning, 2 books i have wanted for ages, looking at this thread finally made me purchase purchase them!.

A few more books from my shelves, Red Tractors is an amazing book though mainly about US built Internationals its a pretty epic work. Being a big fan of blues i just had to obtain a copy of this excellent book. Another fantastic book on Basildon built Fords plus an interesting book about Leylands. I purchased this many years ago and it still is an interesting read.

I am considering getting a copy of that SAME book Robbo, for some reason i thought the text was in Italian.

Thought i would start a topic on what tractor, farm, agricultural or any other book collections you have. I have always loved books and even in this age of the internet and the likes i still prefer to have information on hand in the form of a printed page. I will start the ball rolling with my latest purchases 3 books in fact i have wanted for ages and finally the other week i purchased them, 3 of Mr Gibbards classics.

2 nice ones today for me both on the drive home from work, a rough looking Mcormick mx135 with a mower and a tidy looking ford 7840 hedge trimming.
-
Nice models there Justin, always had a soft spot for MB tracs, remember them being quite popular around my neck of the woods during the early to late 80s particularly the 1000 and the 1500s.

Great i have a first edition 2680 with grey wheels and clickey thing, a mf 200 trailer and a 760 combine, didnt know they was worth 600 notes .
-
It seems ridiculous i agree but when you think some people in this world are quite willing to pay tens of millions for a shiny piece of glass or metal dug out of the ground or a bit of paint on a piece of canvas then a few grand for some model tractors don't seem so bad.
-
I would love a County 1184 but 370 quid is ridiculas really,
-
Very very nice collection, impressed with the amount of tractor/implement box sets you have i never knew Britains made so many variations!. May i ask where did you get them all from as they tend to go for silly prices of ebay and the likes?.
-
Them trailers are getting hard to find nowadays i belive, i have one in my collection but its drawbar got lost many years ago.

Noticed a boxed britains bubble cabbed ford 6600 sold for almost £70 earlier !!!.
