rubbatiti Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Hello all, although I signed up here back in April it's only now I've gotten around to penning my intro! (Although at the time I signed up the site did seem to having a few technical issues!) I live in Surrey (UK) and collect mainly older Britains models, although I've fair selection of other stuff too, like many here I'm sure, when I was young(er) I had a pretty good selection of 1970s Britains stuff, later all sold, well with the exception of my MF760 combine, which somehow escaped the cull, an act I regret now as it was all boxed and very well cared for! I've had a long time interest in anything old with an internal combustion engine on, particularly farm machinery, an interest inherited from my father who'd been a tractor driver in a previous life, we currently own between us now a couple of 'real' tractors, a 1947 Ferguson TE20 Continental, 1949 Ferguson TED20 and a 1960 MF35 TVO, all currently in various stages of rebuild! I started collecting Britains stuff again a few years ago initially the nostalgia of replacing the stuff I'd sold years before, presently I'm trying to amass a collection of all the different variations of the Ford 5000 / 6600 / 5000 Super Major and the earlier DDN Fordson Majors, I take a perverse pleasure in restoring the scruffiest most battered examples I find!
