Lord Ferguson Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Thanks 1972 - they look great - How old are those and how many differing models are there to collect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972farming Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 I think they are 1950s or 60s .There are tractors ,a dumper ,log trailer etc .I like the unusualness about them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Yeah I know what you mean... it's the unusualness that appeals to me too - Value is always secondary to me - the fact that they are hard to find and are little known adds to their appeal. The tractor on the left looks quite solid - is it heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1972farming Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 yes and a small hook at the back .They are loosely fergie based in appearance . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGEL FORD Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I have these too, plus the fergie with cab & foreloader with tipping bucket in green and the landgirl still driving (as yours there). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972farming Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hello there Nigel ,maybe you can answer my question in the other category .I have just bought a timber trailer and think it may be one of your scaledown kits .

NIGEL FORD Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I forgot to mention about a MAYLOWE tractor I have that is similar to the orange CHARBENS, but it does have the name cast-in underneath unlike Charbens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
