BC Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Oh yes I adore these series of International's and remember driving them many years ago. I am a member of the Border Fine Arts Society so I think I should e-mail them suggest a model like this. Treading Softly seems such an apt name too. Do you mind if I copy your photo to send with my e-mail ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1162 - MAIN CROP Its a limited edition of 950 and is a Diesel Grey ferguson TEF 20 and the RRP is £ 350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 At the same time I got the annual tractor I also purchased a Studio one ( made in the Far East and not a limited edition ) A20122 PULLING POWER - A John Deere 2140 The RRP for this is £ 165 but i have 10% discount on all purchase from my supplier the post Horn in Castle Douglas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I do like that JD Bill, it might be my first Border Fine Arts purchase. The problem is, when you have got one you just have to have another and before you know it you have got another collection underway ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 Tell me about it.....as they say Mike. I have over 50 odd BFA's in my collection now ;) The studios one of which this John Deere is is not too bad on price. You could put it on your birthday or Christmas wish list I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerrabbit Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 If the driver of the TEF doesn't take his eyes off the young girl on the planter he'll soon be off the end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 If the driver of the TEF doesn't take his eyes off the young girl on the planter he'll soon be off the end! BFA should name it "A Distraction To The End " ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 I was in a shop selling Border Fine Arts in Banff today and I had a look at "Main crop" again the Grey Ferguson Diesel TEF 20 tractor. If I have one criticism of this model it is the way they have moulded the exhaust pipe to the side of the bonnet. ( You will see this if you look at the first two pictures) The reason they will have done this no doubt is to prevent the exhaust from being bent and breaking however in my opinion it is not authentic because on the real tractor the exhaust does not touch the bonnet. I would have thought the exhaust could have been made with a strong piece of wire in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
