what was the scout based on then?
-
engines the best bit, I did toy once with the idea of putting it on a merry tlller but got sentimental about it
-
this one was gold, and it looks factory,
-
Dragged out the barn today, as I needed another tractor to keep up at the yard for trailer duty. Hadn't been started for a year and she fired right up no problem, as far as I can tell these are rebadged Wheelhorse's a90 specials with a Briggs engine instead of a Kohler .this one's original but is missing the deck and lift apparatus. I've never seen another one in the flesh, this was my first "wheelhorse" so is somewhat special to me, paid £25 for it 5 years ago and up to 2 yrs ago it hauled wood every winter non-stop till it was replaced with one of the c-120s
-
impressed, frsist is an old SJ pickup with a foot cut out of the chassis, the second is a range rover chassis with a disco gearbox and 200tdi out of a defender
-
Anyone guess what these two started life as? The first is undergoing an axle and drive shaft replacement hence it being on its roof
-
well i'm not "tyred" of the jokes yet
-
trailed lawn sweeper is the traditional and easiest way
-
in thre sun trap, come rain they are gonna be straight in there!
-
Built in about 45 minutes start to finish, all recycled materiels not something I'm proud of, but it'll do the job, goats seem happy!
-
A couple pics of some stuff I've dragged out the brambles for another years work, barford atom shredded its drive belt today, and the land masters running like an asmatic mouse, but when is anything ever easy, the bantam however is running like a clock, but then I would expect it to with its nearly new engine!
-
-
if i wasn't laughing id be crying, its a mud pit now! but it'll come right dreckly!
-
rotavated yesterday morning, spring tined in the afternoon, once the barford atom decided to run, planted in the evening, then stupidly i decided to irrigate the plot. that was a waste of water!
-
just rotavated, field was put to potatos last year and was ploughed then,
-
well, you just cant beat a wheelhorse!
-
just a couple pics of some ground prep this year I know how people love working photos!
-
completely agree, It sounds way too convenient! second time that tractors been listed as well.
-
nice find, i missed that one, id have bid just for the plough! but it was probably way out of my price range anyhow! so i shan't lose any sleep, plus its good to know it went to someone local, Devon pride and all that!
-
much tidier than mine, mines a heap!
-
it wasnt ideal, we were making the best of a bad job, he had put wheel spacers on a week prevoisly, and the were of dubious quality and the threads sheared on the slope and the wheel fell off, only option was to fix it in situ, had the highlift plus blocks and the landy behind anchoring it, but it was still sketchy to say the least. handle was down because we had just let it down at that point on to the blocks so it wasnt under pressure
-
gotta use em, nothing better than being up the to diffs in mud! its why mine is not being restored beyond the mechanical side, it would only get scratched, Debbie's a work horse and play thing, not a dressage horse! what you cant see in the first photo is that landys pointing down hill an a 45 degree angle for that tire change held back by another defenders winch, not a fun wheel change!
-
nice truck, Not a proper Landy though, Not unless driving it is a real labour of love! its way to shiny and climate control! I don't even have a back window in mine! and the heaters like an asthmatic mouse blowing though a straw! bet you've even got a syncro gearbox! seriously though really nice buy, bit jealous expect to see some hardcore offroading shots! heres a few from me and my mates, the old black series pickup is mine,
-
well I've bit the bullet and purchased it, probably overpaid, but that doesn't matter, it was worth it to me I guess! will post pictures when I collect this weekend. Hopefully upon seeing it either the drive shaft I have will work or I can cobble something up!
