  12. if these are your middle sized tractors . how big are your bigger tractors ?
  13. The worst car i ever owned was my very first car which was the Hillman Imp. I Just passed my test & i needed to have a car . My dad was restoring an old Hillman imp which a guy from work gave him .sSo when it was done, he gave it to me. This car was sooooooo not cool for a young 17 year old to be driving & all my mates used to smirk at me when i drove this thing around . I dont think it done much for my street cred with the chicks either . I remember this thing would always over heat and i used to carry 2 gallon of water around wherever i went but the worst thing was that when it needed to be filled with water you had to take your life in your own hands as the water filler hose pointed directly at you, so when this thing overheated it would squirt scolding hot water in to your facial direction . & many a time i nearly ended up getting boiling water & scolding steam sprayed into my face . The other pitfalls with this car was the you had to carry 2 bags of cement in the front of the car so as to weigh down the front end of the vehicle because of the weight of the engine in the back would make the front part of the car lift up & make it very unsteady at the front . I also rember that because i had to keep filling the radiator with fresh water every day , the cooling system never ever got any antifreeze in it & so during the freezing winters back then i would end up driving around in a frozen car because the water inside the radiator had frozen & so i had no heater inside & the only way the windscreen would defrost was by breathing on it & driving the car with my head leaning out of the window so that i could see because the windscreen had also frozen over . so sadly any girls that i did mange to take out never bothered seeing me again . I only kept this car for around 1 year because as a young 17 year old i got fed up of not having any girlfriends to take out cruising .
  14. I agree with him above me , it is too nice to send to work , she is certainly a museum exhibit . Buy anther use one and work that one , Top job Matt,,,,,,,,, one of the best ive seen
