i like it here I've just been having a good old nose about your threads !!!
little hijack of my one thread with a few previous build and a bit of back ground. (I'm a picture whore sorry)
i like anything old and thats moves. As a family we go to a few locals show
I like to start them young, this is my son ..... growing fast
when my old past, i wouldn't part with his mobility scooter so we did this,
he smokes about on it.
then i bought him this for his 4th birthday hahah a tad premature, So i got put away for a bit
he's now old enough to drive it around. But i need to weld an extension bar on the clutch. he just puts it in gear and pulls it out to stop
this is my toy
anyway enough time wasting I'm gonna bring the Ferrari from the barn to my garage t work on it, you have inspired me.
it has 28 x 9.00 - 15 turf tyres on. I'm thinking 5.00-15 6 Ply BKT AS504 Open Centre Dumper Tyre, they'll fit right ?
bought is about a year ago
it had been stood for over 3 years after its working farm life. I thought it was far too cool to leave to rot. So after some haggling we agreed a price (farmer did not want to sell)
Basically everything needs doing and its very much a work in progress. the cab is rotten as a judge
but its looking a lot better now
hello, Ive stumbled across this wonderful forum for like minded folk.
I recently picked this up, Its not running but looks complete other then a starter motor. And a perished rear tyre due to it been stood on it flat.
It has a diesel 10 hp lombardini engine and i think its 1970's and thats about all I know about it, My plan it to get it started. paint the wheels, maybe replace the tyres with more tractor like tyres and use it.
the first thing i found out about it was how heavy it is, I collected it on my own from someones back garden, had to get it down a alley with 90 degree bend, i had to lift and bounce it round, I think it was worth it.
any info would be nice
thanks Ash
