    ive only seen pics of the senior and looking forward to seeing neils at some point.but the gearboxes seem very alike three forward plus reverse .only the parts on the ota were fitted to a ford popular.As with many of these smaller tractors being built just after the war and the early to mid fifties in this country.

    Hi darren as explained not a part of Ardingly vintage show for exactly the reasons of charges and other politics.so thats why we are having a gathering at the small holders show the week before instead and theres no charges and most of us are attending. Theres also our small get together at the lavendet line in isfield near Uckfield in Sussex in march which is a very friendly day.

    hi andyThe ota you have pictured is the early three wheel version. But these were not known as monarchs .it was only the four wheeled ones that were. Later on ota was taken over by singer cars .and I d ont think it was long after they stopped building these little gems.

  17. steve d

    Heres a couple of pics of some of the colwoods I own . I Actually own five dating from 1946 to 1948. Plus I also run a register for anything made by dashwood engineering of London who produced these machines.
