TS135A DRIVER Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 A first class read again this month. With a good buyers guide feature on the Ford 5000 in it. Now we can refresh our memories on this classic and compare it to the new Britains RC2 model. Interesting feature on life in County factory in " Memory Lane " I love reading this magazine every month and have to pick it up over and over to make sure I haven't missed anything. Top marks again this month Rory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rorsday Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Dear Tractorman810 & TS135A Driver, As ever, thank you for your kind comments. You're one up on me because my copies haven't arrived yet, so I haven't seen what the finished magazine looks like! The wait is killing me. I appreciate there will probably be little new for FTF members in this month's Collectors Corner slot; it's aimed more at those without internet access (and who are also not aware of FTF).

Nice story and great to see he won the best restoration award at Fraserburgh rally in hi class. The last time I was speaking to him was at Glamis and he told me the only thing the judge at Fraserburgh didn't like about his tractor was the wrong colour of the exhaust. I can assure you the judge was out to rights in a polite sort of way. I hope Gordon does go ahead with a MF135 restoration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
