BC Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Next the original maintenance manual I got when I purchased my 1948 Ransome MG2 crawler in 1983 if my memory serves me correctly. All covered in brown paper by the first owner Peter Kaminkas who worked the machine from new. Some of the photo pages from the book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Next up the original Drivers Handbook etc for my 1957 Nuffield Universal DM4 The waxy envelope. There was a clip in the lid of the tool box behind the drivers seat to hold this but I think it was kept at my grandparents in a drawer in the kitchen.

BC Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 In addition within the waxy envelope there were a few other bits and pieces Bit late to join the owner drivers club now. Look at the free insurance benefit rates but well the tractor was new in 1957 so it is 44 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Next a couple of Massey and or Ferguson bits and pieces. I did actually own a 1956 TEF 20 diesel at one point in time but sold it many years ago when I no longer had land to work it. I'm sure this manual is a replica The next one is an original and is is rather good condition. I got that from my uncles who had a combine like it.

BC Posted November 5, 2011 Author Share Posted November 5, 2011 Next up is a collection of tractor and implement user handbooks and instruction books which I got via my father many years ago. Just prior to retiring my father worked at an agricultural college and one of the lecturers was disposing of these and knowing I collected tractors offered them to dad. Seemed a shame not to accept if he was just going to be disposing of them. He was mainly a David Brown man but I think this Fordson Major one must have come via him as well David Brown VIG/IC/1 Cropmaster Diesel Series VAD-1C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
