MJB1 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Think i would have bought the 78 sj with hindsight i think many others would have liked to of as well when a friend was looking for a 78 a few years back he had the choice of two,a SJ & a normal blue , could never work out why he went for the blue ? when yer contracting , it's these little things that stick in peoples heads theres a contractor nearby had a SJ & contracted fodderbeet harvesting , he swaped the SJ for a 7740 but he's still known as "the chap who had the silver ford " as no one can remember his name !
