No problems Paul
Glad its gone to a good home
-
I have had a few of these over the years & fixed a few for others
Must say, that yours must be one of the best of that age arround. Most have rotted away by now
-
No Andrew its all worn out & you best sell it to me to fix
Glad its all working out with the tractor
-
Now looking at the pics I am sure its not
Both green though!

Hi & Welcome.

Thought about it, but has I have 4, a house, baby & angry woman if I buy any more
-
-
Just wondered if any of you lot have or know who brought that large collection of WH & attachments from that auction site the other week??
-
Looks like another wheel horse in your collection Chris
Is it a runner??
-
These guys then??

Maybe I will give them a go when I need some agri tyres for the 1050
-
If you say so Iain, I dont remember
-
Havent had my renewal yet
Give it until next week then I will chase them
-
Thats funny Ian, everybody else says the same about the loader
Anybody got any contact details for Simon Cole????
-
No they wont Andrew
Better fit on my 1050
Your a right magnet for Bolens items lately
A good find
-
-
I have replied to your PM Paul
Give me a bell
-
Dam that blower was on my turf patch then & I missed it
It will prob turn up on ebay
-
You can Iain if Jack decides he does not want it
-
Dont panic, Jack still wants it due to a problem he had last weekend
-
Love the pics Iain,
Think you need a bigger trailer next time I feel a trip to see my long lost uncle when the weather warms up & I will pop in for a test drive
I love the working clothes look
I dont own all the HT20s, just 2 of them
-
Must be rare in the UK, Iain knows of one other HT20 in the UK with a Front End Loader. Sure there must be some more rotting away else where.
Just been watching some in action on youtube

-
The front loader should not take mutch to remove Andrew.
I do have 3 loader tractors which I look after at work just up the road, so may have to see if I can borrow one for the job to unload
-
I dont even know how I am going to get it off the trailer yet
I do have some spare rear tyres, not mutch good when the wheels dont turn cos the back end is full of muck
-
No I have not been flavour of the month, hence the sell of of a few other machines
-
Right then, time to show off this very rare beast of a Bolens tractor which has joined my collection.
My thanks go to Iain who pointed out to me & I beat him to it on a deal then a long distance transport problem I had in getting it brought over from Co Down, Northan Ireland to Sussex I did in the end found an Irish machinery haulier who had room on a lorry which was heading for Oxford. I ended up meeting it at a engineers in Warwickshire who had a telehandler suitable to lift it out of the lorry trailer & onto my trailer.
Its a very poorly HT20 c/w rare front loader & Brantley back hoe. Its been sat as a wreck for approx 20 years according the the guy I brought it from. Various parts missing inc rear fender & hydrostat unit for the back axle. The tractor engine is a mess & is stuck solid.
Its going to be a massive project to under take as all hyraulic rams need overhauling due to rust & pipe work rotten & wont be cheap to replace.
The plan will to be fit the loader/digger onto my other tractors & the tractor will be broken up for spares as its too far gone to restore in some areas in rear axle which is full of mud & rust.
Now this has got to be rarer than a D200 wheel horse
