MF Joel NZ Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hi i've just joined up. I've known about the farmtoysforum for a couple of years through nick (kiwi nick 6920), but I hav'nt gotten on myself so I thought an entrance was overdue! My collection consists of mainly massey fergusons but there are various others including a couple of fords, cats, etc. I have a real tractor (allis chalmers but it doesn't go (got the head off to uncease a couple of pistons that came into contact with rainwater down the exhaust) I also have a series 1 Landrover for those who like them. Thats a slow restoration in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MF Joel NZ Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks guys. I'l get hold of a digital camera. I'm still in the dark ages (I like film). My landy is an 88" Station wagon. Only S1 Iv ever seen with full interior trim (For a landy). I'v removed pretty much all if it because it was so tatty when I bought it. It's bright green and white. Put it this way, you couldn't miss it on the road! I used to own a 110 v8 hard top as well but i sold that. Wouldn't hesistate to get another though if I found one in really good nick.

MF Joel NZ Posted June 22, 2008 Author Share Posted June 22, 2008 In wellington at the mo but going to move up to Palmerston North soon to finnish my apprenticeship. Finding it a bit hard to get all the necessary experience where I am. I'm gna grab the camera from work so I will be able able to post some pics. Will put my Landy on 2. I like the old beast. Mite scan some old pics though cos it's looking a bit sad with only two wheels ( bin restoring the front drive train, replacing just about everything so it will be like new when I've finnished). When I bought it the steering was so bad I couldn't get it through a gateway first time idling in second gear. Didn't take much to fix though.

Deere-est Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Nice. Spent a night in Wellington before going across to Picton last year when me and the missus were out there. Passed straight through P.North too with no time to call in for a beer with Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
