Leakeyvale Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 You have plenty of time to amass a collection, Shane. I started collecting farm toys much later and now I cannot move for them! Welcome to the mad world of FTF Chris has it almost right - your bank balance is now subject to depredation. I disagree with the woman bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordTractorCrazy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 welcome aboard. It is an addicting habit, this collecting thing.. There is soo much out there, it is hard to choose, but sadly most of us must as the wallet/wife doesnt allow that much spending please show us pictures of your collection, it sounds great! (especially the FORD part ) the JD 50's series have not been mass produced as of yet, but there are some talented scratchbuilders that have made them in 1:32, you might stumble upon a couple of those examples on here..
