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

WHAT!!!  
 
Have to see what I can do with it before hand.
 
See if I can fit it in between nappy changes

Mate of mine has had this in his garden for 15 years. He wanted to sell it & thought it was worth a fortune in its current condition.
 
We finaly done a sensible deal we were both happy with & I picked it up today. Its got some wheel weights. It did have a snow plough & deck but they are long gone
 
Needs to go through my loving hands in my workshop.The steering is stuck solid!  When that maybe I dont know?
