BGU Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Just thought I would let you all know that the Fuel tanks etc are built from scratch by George Poole, they will be available at Spalding on Dad's Tractors stand. Hopefully George will be there also. Any going to Toytrac? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 think i may just buy one with me making it i would have to buy all the stuff about 3 times before building a ok one no harm in trying, you gotta start somewhere!, and if it turns out wrong you can always use it as an old tank \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 can we pre-order for Toytrac? Give him a ring Kev, he is a true gent and will be happy to help you. No doubt he has a few orders to fullfill but it is worth a call as he is only round the corner form you at Thame. I will PM you his number mate.
