Held near Lavant, Chichester, this show boasts a unique working area that allows for old combines, threshers and balers to be put into action

Now its been guessed (well done Triumph66), here's some pictures It seems all there (not had it running yet Chris but I am assured that it does) Front wheels have solid tyres, rears are pneumatic, one of them is knackered but luckily the tyres on the wheels I bought at RPT will fit

I have a job on my hands, this 50's classic needs saving, tomorrow I will be trying to free it from its tomb of 40 odd years, I will keep you informed of progress if there is any interest.

Carb kit arrived Tuesday, carb rebuilt. Engine runs! But solenoid is shot and needs a battery too. Once you work out that it has to be in neutral, cutter disengaged, grass box on, sit on seat, etc.... You can make them work! I can see why so many people bypass the interlocks, it's a pain in the backside! You can't even reverse with the deck engaged!!! Anyway, we've had a cut out of it, and child no.1 seems to be up for adopting it, it's had a wash and polish!

Might be one buried in my shed or at Johns 😃😃😃

Just for Norms benefit as Ewan can't hold a camera A few more pics, Ewan plastering.... And painting

I just got a Woodwacker chipper (WW1) made by the Didier Mfg. Co. It looks to be in good shape, but missing the engine. I looked online and saw that they originally had a 8 hp. Engine. I have a 8hp Briggs but I need to know what to put on for a shieve. The driven one seems to have a variable diameter shieve possibly similar to snowmobile torque converter. Does anyone know about these machines, or know where I could download a parts diagram or manual? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk:ImageUploadedByTapatalk1441059157.551803.jpg]

As some of you know Norm and myself have been messing around with ploughs, the ploughs we have are the same and very heavy, Norm very kindly made me a hitch the same as his and the plough fitted and worked very well, the only problem was lifting it with a cable from the deck handle. Norm has a spring on his but makes it awkward so I've made a longer cable and moved it back near the plough for better leverage and it seems to work much better

Found this little saw last week, its a Kennedy power hacksaw bench mounted and uses broken hacksaw blades and cuts up to 50 mm. Its 110 volt and when I first turned it on i used a long stick as it had been laying around for a while but it works fine. It soon goes through metal and is fascinating to watch. All i got to do now is find a use for lots of 1 inch bar cut an inch long

Well the roof was dented in but once I got into the almost perfect interior I was able to pop it out again! Pictures of the rescue follow. The pile of treasure and trash I had to remove. The interior Anyone remember green shield stamps?

This was collected today, it came all the way from Wales Any guesses to what it is ?? (Not you Sten you already know ) (Clue, its a make I already collect)

Good idea, I will do that

Spot on that man

Is that pull start Ian? :D

Hello all. Yesterday I decided to knock up a weight bracket/box to house a front weight I got back in the summer. I don't need a front weight It was just more of a 'hmmm can I shall I' to give me something to do, still needs a few bits doing and some paint.

That's a cool project, I look forward to seeing the resto unfold.. One thing though.. The optional extra roof mounted beds were never know for getting a good nights sleep on.. So even though it would look good repainted maybe it's best to leave it off

Hydraulics are for pussys, you should have 3 wheetabix in the mornings

Nice mod Chris Now when I get my G14 bolens running I have a brinley plough for it. Good thing about this tractor is its fitted with a hydraulic lift kit so I dont have to strain myself

Ah, ok. 1-0310 is listed (U.S.) as a '71' 12hp with a Kohler Engine in most WH records. So you have a Belgium-ised Model that used up surplus parts from U.S. for the Euro market. Not big deal really, as it is converted to what it should have been, albeit with a later engine.....so call it a Raider 12 and get some new Decals for it

mine also was green underneath a hand painted red and is in the process of being repaint green it once was, came from a local loch keepers in Scotland

Cut off the ring hitch today and fitted a ball coupling. Already to be put back to work and easy to move about with one of the horses.

Wheel conversion all done and dusted now. A bonus is the steering is a tad lighter.

Got the rear tyres fitted today. For £10 why struggle? Got the lift cable fitted as well. 3mm stainless with a plastic coat. Also a photo' of the brake pedal stop. Not very good to see, but best I could do. Pedal came a long way back. Just made out of a piece of alli' angle cut to suit.
