got it of the bench today, jobs next week is fit fuel tap pour petrol in fit decals.

Finally had a dry day so made the second door and fitted, with them both open i have a 5 foot opening so a wheelhorse should fit through it, here's a couple of pictures for Norm to look at

You were busy hiding behind the quad I recall If you have ever wondered what it's like to drive Project Why Not, this video should give you a good idea

Looks ok, Chris. As for the photo's. Stop putting them down to me wanting them. You just want to show off.

Another item found weeks ago while clearing John's barn. We have picked it up, puzzled over it, scratched our heads and put it down again numerous times. Someone will hopefully have an answer. 8" long and the only marking is No 2 on the handle. As can be seen on the photo's, I hope, sliding the central bar forward opens out the end of the side arms slightly which are closed again via the spring when the bar is retracted. Hope this is clear.

No probs Kev, I will get my Tractorfest forms sorted soon !!

Ah well I only invite certain people :D

Well, he is a SHOWMAN Norm.

Havn't got any collets handy but these give the general idea . Very useful when working within the confines of an L head valve chest.

Good looking deal with all that kit, i would get it running and leave it as is and have some fun

Nice find mate that is nice cheers James

It's an Commando 800, same as mine. I've the same sweeper as well. Good find with the plough etc.

That's a great find!

Thanks mate With the gearing and diff lock it should be able to pull anything and not get stuck Thanks Chris. A bit more progress.. Nigel made a blanking plate to cover the headlamp hole in the bonnet/hood. The fuel tank got a coat of red... A few dents add character And a heavy duty tow hitch has been added

You could call it " Half a Horse"

Yes, it is a shame Paul. Had planned to use it and play on John's land, plus also hoped to take it to shows. But as said, once John has sold up I don't have room at home for it or a trailer to get it around. The plan now is a 1/2 size semi scale tractor which should fit into my Meriva. Just about big enough to sit on. This is partly built, ( slow job due to helping John ), using mainly bits from the Showman's favourite hunting ground and will be known as LITTLE HORSE. We have a Black horse, a Trac horse and a Shakin horse and maybe others so why not a Little Horse.

Amazing work Alan, didn't realise how bad it was looking at it now
