Anglo Tracton aka Richard, do you run a courier service? If so I could be interested in your services. thanks

Some really great photos there, I especially liked the Barn Owl photo and the moon.

I too have used Hermes as well. I advertise if I need a collection via Shipley in the past. indeed, I am using a courier via Shipley to collect my Bolens tractor. If it survives intact, I will let you know who he is!

A good show by the look of it. What's the make of the little blue garden tractor?

Don't worry my Morris is safe and sound. Have you seen the oldest Morris Minor van on EBay? It's a total restoration case but it's supposedly the oldest in Europe...... Though some have cast doubts on it authencity but I have always fancied a split screen LCV from the 50s. That Wheel Horse is tempting...... Once the Bolens is safely in my possession next week, I can then cast my eyes around for more............. I have ordered the book and await it arrival.

That's the icing on the cake that is!

I am on the case now.....

I saw that in one of the forum's topics but can't find one available at the moment. This is highly addictive these garden tractors.......

I seen that on EBay and wondered what others thought of it. Thanks.

Is there a book or books on Garden Tractors that covers Wheel Horses, Simplicity, Bolens, Cub Cadets etc... That anyone can recommend as I want to delve into the history of these classic and iconic machines. Thanks

Looking forward to getting it home. Be an interesting project for me. Will post some photos of its arrival.

And I thought the EU was complicated! Seriously, very useful to knoe

Thanks for the tip off.

I am afraid I don't know. This is a new venture into collectible American lawn tractors for me. I am sure someone else can provide the answer though.

Well, I have taken the plunge and bought a Bolens Husky 1254. I hope to collect it w/c 4 August..... Nigel, you don't still have that engine do you? I could be interested.

It could be a Bucher? I am guessing it's a flail attachment?

There's another one up in Newcastle on the bay starting at £300. Too far for me but might be be of interest to members up North?

Looking for a Bolens 1254 sales Brochure and owners' manual. Also looking for an appropriate mower deck that would fit this tractor. tHanks Andrew.

Very tidy example. The modern Cub Cadets range are popular with self employed gardeners.

I will look forward to taking them.......

Cheers, the purchase of said tractor is a step closer...... Watch this space.....

Just an aside, will the club be selling the MOM stickers at this event? If so, I will buy one SO that I have to buy a tractor to put it on!

Thanks that could be very useful if I buy it. The one I have seen has a lot of patina. Cheers Andrew

Are parts and tinware easy to get in the UK?

All look damn good to me. I am in a quandary with this Bolens tractor that I have seen. It got a Teledyne Wisconsin heavy duty air cooled engine in it. What to do.....
