Richard de Florennes Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I have not read all 21 pages before, but is it possible to get hold of one of these fantastic harvesters? A local farmer used one of those T.I.M. machines here in the 80s and 90s and I always dreames of having one of those as a model! Thanks and Regards Sascha P.S. what about making this brilliant modell available as farm toys members modell? I love the special Ford edition very much, but such a beet harvester would be just fantastic as addition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the special Ford edition very much, but such a beet harvester would be just fantastic as addition! Thankyou for your comment Sascha. As several more members on here are asking now I think I'd better explain the current situation here than by pm, at present the whole of the first batch are sold but will need to check on that with someone in two weeks time. I will be doing another 25 later on in the year all things being well but due to work commitments on the farm that is likely to be October onwards. If there are any spare ones from this batch I will contact any member who is not on the list and has expressed an interest in one as soon as I know. If I have none spare I know a man who may well have a few for sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a dry fit, get everything on and together along with any holes drilled before painting then all taken apart again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
