FNHIR Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Does anybody have this model? And if so, would they be able to tell me if it has the sign saying 'Made in the Irish Free State'? I hope to buy this in the very near future with the Dunlop wheels, as both Fordson and Dunlop had plants in Cork at the time, though now sadly no more. (Cue Cropmaster saying if it was 1:16 then there would be enough space for the sign ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGEL FORD Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Incidentally I forgot to mention that the parts differences include: front axle, magneto, radiator core and side castings,mudguards and hence their stays. I would also offer it with spadelugs or cleated wheels if you prefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
