NEWS FLASH..... we have a weeks dungey tractor on display in the horticultural section this year. now this is a very special tractor as it is 1 of just a small handful made and is living in its home county. it is also extra special this year as it is 100 years old and still running and is a birthday not to be missed. i am going to the show site meeting next weekend and will keep you posted on developments. http://www.tractorfest.co.uk/ . check out this site for the latest show news on entertainment and attractions. also the exhibitors list is growing nicely but it would be great if you were on it so check your diaries and see if you can make it and you will be made most welcome to a great event.

just thought i would share this new addition to you 1980

Ian , beyond the shed is a different story,veg, fruit trees, greenhouses and what i like to call my machine testing facility

a few more pictures

with the wheel weights and front weight it holds the ground well. my son (vegi-junior) ploughed at a working day event for almost 10 hours without a single problem. i have a video of it but cant seem to upload it. good strong machine

cracking machines they are

Ok i will get on it this weekend and get back to you

i think so but not 100% as its been a while since i last looked

thanks s1g. yes koen its is a bosch ignition

havent got a clue where blackwood is?? i think the coil pack might be ok the problem was when we got it, it wasn't running so on inspection i found what can only be described as spaghetti gone wild with solder after solder on lots of odds and ends of wire

all working and used on the plot except the hako. it needs an ignition rebuild.

just thought id share some pictures with you

also looking for coleby or drake and fletcher machinery.......... anyone??

thats the same cap

will try and scan it and get it on here

vegi-junior has one of these. the fuel cap should be crome with mobil gt stamped on it. i will get a photo for you. i also have a copy of the handbook in english containing operating instructions and parks lists. this one was at a working day that i went to

1. half penny sweets 2. jif 3. marathon chocolate bar 4. teachers cane 5. 6p buns-left over cream cakes from the day before 6. sunday evening tea, when families had time to be with each other 7. second hand bath water 8. village bobby 9. mobile traders- vegi man, seafood man and not forgeting the toffee apple man, mr bacons and silverspring (door to door fizzy pop) 10. last but not least my fringe!!!

cheers nigel

great pictures there neil and nigel. been doing some digging today and unfortunatly weeks as a company just ended and were never taken over by drake and fletcher or anyone else which makes my task even more challenging but not deterred is that yours nigel?? or do you know who owns it???

hold that thought neil, there may be a strong chance that d&f might have took on weeks equipment. will look into that and get back to you. do you have any pictures out of interest??

hi all i am looking for any owners of machinery manufactured by weeks and son of maidstone to possible help in some way towards a very special day. please could you message me and i will contact you to explain more. many thanks

"""not my wife"""" mainly coldplay but will listen to most music

citroen xantia and ford modeo. my first and only of each. vauxhall has been my main chioce over the years

when the boss gives you £55,000 worth of machinery to use , you do tend to wonder if he is thinking straight when he tells you to " go spray the marsh" when its this wet. but when the boss says go do that and see how you get on well that translates to me as a challenge

one of my winter days last year. landini 90f orchard tractor 85hp pulling a 2000ltr bab orchard sprayer
