Thanks has any one got a pic of the gold county?? also was the jeweltrack a special edtion??

Jewelltrac was the name given to tractors built up by L F Jewell Ltd following its aquisition of Roadless Traction in 1983.

Was the Spirit of '76 sold as a model kit by Ertl?

a young lady at tescos filling her car up ,wearing a short flimsy dress, more summery to be honest, and black tights, ,the dress had ridden up as she drove and she didnt pull it down ,as she stood at the pump we got a eyefull of everything on display :D :D :D :D

It would have been rude not to look

It is compleet now . Thanks for help.

You are welcome, it looks much better now 

Hey PR they look much better with some models posed on them, brings them to life so to speak 

Thats a nice early farm cart, is it the paler blue as per some of the four wheeled wagons?

Do any of you remember the push out fold and glue  together cardboard farm  ..................was it evedale farm or somethin?I forget it was so long ago but ...I may even still have the dog kennel , the rest didn`t last long if I remember rightly.No idea when it was from other than I`d get it in the 70`s

I also had/still have the big pre moulded farmhouse and newer base, would be bought in 1987 or thereabouts ............I never really liked it or used it other than puttin it together.... anyone else have , used to have it?

Yes, Evedale Farm issued in 1978 only. I saw an unused one last Saturday, ?15. Your pre moulded farmhouse etc see my post above 

Was that the reversable one that looked like a house on the other side or am I just thick

Carefull answers only >

Reversible one issued in 1988 along with a vacuum formed play-base and animals, no.4712. Deleted end of 1990. This one issued as 4721 when it cost 17/2 (86p) and deleted end of 1973 when it cost ?1.15  . As well as the weather vane the little ledge by the hayloft window is also easily damaged, the lugs break off 

Okay,

Bought a 1960 new lines brochure today, thought these would be of interest here

I've seen the wheelwright/smith one before somewhere, not sure where though. Looked a bit home made to me, maybe the signage was added latter. A lot of the early buildings look homemade or even, dare I say it, crude  This does give them a sort of naive charm, I think. Are they attributable to any manufacturer?

I think that may have been my Dad with the industrial, although it was just the box!

As far as I know, the model steers. I think its fantasic, but will make way too much money for mine or my dads budget! We are currently negotiating for the chrome fordson anyway.

Were you in the tent? I thought it was an old boy who has since passed away, I'm sure his collection was up for sale a while back.

I have the E1A, would like an E27N but they make to much money

There was an industrial major, boxed, at Spalding a couple of years ago, I believe it was only on display though.

I have never seen the little fergie before, does it steer? unlike the dexta?

For implements try Toy Tractors From Britains by Peter Baron, this covers 1948 to 1998. ISBN 0 9521078 3 .

Other than that you are looking at getting the customer or trade catalogues

Some lovely buildings there Andy.

Is the papier mache cottage 1/32? it looks a little bit like the Lilliput ones.

Is it about 9" to 9.5" long, 4.5" to 5" wide and 6" tall plus the stubby chimney? Are the windows and doors stickers/decals?

It looks like an updated version of 44F with some of the timber framing removed and a hip roof added at the other end, so post war?

He still hasn't replyied to my email about uk buying and posting so don't know if i should bid or not  \ \ \ ???

I didn't get a reply either, perhaps this person does not speak/read english 

Any one know when the next issue is due out?

I spoke to publisher at Toytrac and was told next issue should be out about the end of november

Okay, where on ebay do I find it?

A Ford 4000 seen in Louisiana May 2007

It has got inset headlamps in the grill

Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh what a cute little tractor  :D :D :D :D

I might be tempted with one of these, hope the major is as good.

Whats the detail like underneath, no picture

Do I remember correctly that around 46watts = 1hp?   (1Kw = 1000watts).

I reckon no, 1 HP = 750 watts approximately or maybe even exactly! trying to remember (electric)motor control from college, a while ago shall we say Try the maths, 230x0.75 =172.5kw  not 230x.046=10Kw ? 

I think I saw one of these at the last Sandown Toyfair for ?25. They are all common figures/animals, so personally I think that is far to much, you pays your money you takes your choice

If it had been 7580 or 7594 Showjumping game and earlier Showjumping set, respectively, then your ?40-?60 would be a good price 

found this on ebay

Where?

Welcome to the Blue side Mandy  , some good pictures.

Was it the 5000 you liked or the 1184TW?

Some good pics there Marky. I've never been to that show, the Perkins exhibit looked interesting, very apt/local.

Couldn't they afford a shilling for the meter in the large shed?

How big was the model of the Muirhill? tyres looked like those normally found wrapped around an ashtray

Okay, this was yesterday , but I thought it might interest some of you.......

Artic car transporter with 6 new Subaru Impreza's on it, 3 on the top deck and 3 upside down underneath the top deck, fixed to it, and the legend " the new Subaru Impreza sticks to the road"

Anyone else seen it?

I reckon you must have been looking over my shoulder at Toytrac, Powerrabbit, because I bought both of those titles from the same vendor along with a young farmers badge and a case db badge. He showed a 50's/60,s childrens book to a couple, who bought it, I would have otherwise Prices were originally 2'6 and 40p, a bit more now though. I do have another couple of ladybird books along the same vein but cannot remember what they are called, they are in loft, I think
