BC Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Nice variety there Sean. The one that really took my eye was the Ransome's trailer one since I was not aware they made trailers. Mind you I don't suppose many would have reached Aberdeenshire given there was both Marshall Trailers and Frasers of Rothienorman making trailers locally.

Tractorman810 Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 never saw a big twin axle ransomes but loads of smaller single axel ones bill, not sure if they were self made, or bought in from say pettit, as they are exactly the same bar colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
