DBfan Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 well all i found a few pics of a legendary DB tractor that opened a lot of doors at Gallon Bridge Farm unfortunatly this tractor was badly neglected over the years in fact she was parked in the corner of a feild and left :'( But hope was not lost for this workhorse as myself and grandad who bought the tractor new in 1959 when to get her back on her feet the tractor lay in the feild for the past 20 odd years so we got her puttled out and started a restoration project that took about a year and was finished this week. ok enough history now pics as you have seen the tractor was badly grown over we took the 995 up to pull her free free and in the workshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMB Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Loving the sepia tint effect from yesteryear and good to see grandad is still fit to drive his original workhorse! Hes a bit sinister-looking if you dont mind me saying though, sort of a cross between Alfred Steptoe and the Waffen SS bloke from raiders of the lost arc...
