  1. WOW... thanks for sharing... some real rare ladies this side of the water.... much appreciated.

    The Fiats caught my eye... the smaller one looks familiar to me.. like another brand of tractor... can't think for the life of me what though  :-\

    Reminds me of a Someca... but they were just last years Fiats anyway

  2. Great old pics well worth looking at, they remind me of the days when I was actually in the farming business. The hay turner will be a Willy Pheasant and it was made by Lely although I remember them being red, funny how the memory goes  ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

    edit I just love the translation of the c o c k word

  3. I'm pretty sure it's a 165 robbo... at least mine is anyway  :-\

    You are lucky it still has the tyres as well.. most of them fell off... they seem to have expanded over the years... or the hubs have shrunk perhaps  ???

    You're right  :o :o :o I have just put my glasses on and had a closer look  ??? ??? ??? ??? I have been thinking it was a 135 doh!

  4. looks great i need a cabnit

    on the massey self there is a littel i think 165 and trailer go any info on it

    The little Massey is a Corgi 135 and the trailer is from my childhood days, I think it was a Britains log trailer, I found it when I was clearing out my mothers loft and came across and old toy box. I used to have loads of tractors when I was a child but when I left home my mother gave them all to the local nursery school, they would have been worth a bit now and been quite rare

  5. Picture from a distance of the whole unit would be nice too  :)

    I have just got back from IKEA and I have got 2 extra shelves  @ ?10 each, unfortunately the trip cost me ?76 as the boss wanted a hall table and 3 picture frames  :-\ :-\ :-\ ah well a small price to pay really  ;) ;)

  6. I'd like to see some more pics of that sometime please Robbo.

    Another question...

    Do you have lights for the cabinet ??? - and if not... any plans to have...

    I've still not got lights in my cabinet, which is something I really must get around to sorting out sometime in the near future  :-[

    The short answer is no, me and electrics don't mix, I'm just about OK with a hammer but anything more delicate than that and I need outside assistance, thats why I can't do any conversions I am just too ham fisted and I would ruin anything

  7. Nice one Robbo.... Looks like a bargain for only ?90... good old Ikea...

    One question... what's the crawler ???

    It is a Ros SAME Explorer in 1/16 scale, it is going to be joined soon by a Cat Challenger 95E and hopefully an MT765 (if the bid is successful)

    You probably can get more shelves... do you know I hadn't even though about that :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ back to IKEA this afternoon then  :D :D :D

  8. 'Er indoors relented and it was off to IKEA for a new cabinet that they call a "Billy" bookcase, 6 shelves and glass doors not bad for ?90

    The intention is to have one shelf for each major manufacturer but at the moment it is a bit haphazard

    Top shelf Ford, Fiat and New Holland, then 2nd shelf John Deere

    Next one is the SAME's and the fourth one at the moment is a mixture of red ones, MF, Case and McCormick

    Models0262304x1728.jpg

    The bottom 2 shelves are a bit of a hotchpotch of odds and sods that either don't fit in with anything else or are a different scale

    Models0252304x1728.jpg

    Eventually I plan to have them as

    1 Ford Fiat New Holland

    2 John Deere

    3 SAME

    4 Deutz and the 1/25 models

    5 CaseIH and McCormick

    6 AGCO

    The I have to work on a second cabinet  ;D ;D ;D ;D just don't tell the better half yet "softly softly catchee monkee"
