Cropmaster Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 After a long search, I finally sourced a David Brown VAK1C in England. Here is a picture of it when it arrived in May... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cropmaster Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Look at it now! ;D In case anybody is wondering where the seat is, a new cover is currently being made for it! Apart from that, the tractor's restoration is finally complete! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cropmaster Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 The engine was rebuilt at an earlier stage, and runs beautifully - no smoke, and it starts as soon as you tip the starter! It was serviced recently, and the engine oil still hasn't turned black! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 So could she beat a fordson in a tug of war? Nah..only kidding, don't want to start that. Any idea on the HP? and how do you counter weight it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cropmaster Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 It's about 35hp. My Diesel Major is about 42hp, so the Major would win hands down. The Cropmaster would probably beat the Ferguson TEF20 tough!!! :D A Cropmaster is really only a tractor to admire! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
