  1. Well done mate, it's your fault for making me drink those Desperadoes
  2. Mr John Webster had an exhausting day at the show
  3. As many as that Chris, they must be big machines with the size of your trailer, better make some more room
  4. First day at the show, here's a few photos
  5. Small bottles or not people over here can still have to much and cause problems, you can buy it by the pint on tap over here in the pubs though ðŸ‘
  6. I always fit my own tractor tyres, i have a tyre machine in my workshop and worked in tyre shop. The small ones are easy to do with levers and don't take long and as the usage is mainly on grass at the most at 7 or 8 mph they don't need balancing. As I'm really old , good used ones will see me out 😀😀😀
  7. Ive just about exhausted my stock of them now Alan, i'll have to watch what I buy in future
  8. Quite often working on this old stuff I find a need to warm things up to free them off or dismantle. during my travels this week I found this blowlamp and thought it would be handy, ive stood a Guinness bottle next to it to compare the size
  9. Four tyres and tubes fitted now and ive unloaded it from the van, i'm at Ardingly this weekend so will do photos Monday
  10. All loaded up with 4 Wheelhorse's ready for an early start
  11. First thing is to fit some replacement tyres then i can move it about much easier
  12. Some interesting stuff there, i like the International's
  13. I was going to apply for a job at gatwick baggage handling I assume your talking about the disc harrows Charlie, I'm hoping i can lift them off the ground
  14. Thanks Alan for the good photos, nice finish to an exhausting day, nice to see John driving the Wheelhorse instead of the " other " red tractor
  15. Yes Norm, it looks like it was made by the same manufacturers as the other one only difference is its longer and has drop sides and tailgate, it needs new wood and the usual tyres and tubes but im very pleased with today's haul Its been a very hot and sweaty day and spent in good company, many thanks to Alan and John for their hospitality and allowing me to spend the day with them
  16. I took the Wheelhorse up with me to do a bit of towing
  17. Just checked my mailbox and mine have arrived today
  18. Had another day foraging about in barns today, and all the towing was done by Johns favourite Wheelhorse which i took back up with me as a surprise for him to use for old time sake. Needless to say i was talked into another van load of goodies. Alan took a couple of photos which i hope he will add to the post and I'll add mind when i get on the laptop
  19. Have you noticed the slot in the top of the shaft Ian, looks like it had a steering lock ?
  20. Many happy returns Mark and all the very best
  21. I'm going with Shak'in Horse, has anyone got their tickets back yet ?
  22. Morning Jack and welcome to MOM, that's an awesome bit of kit and well restored.havnt seen one of those over here in the UK , its looks like its driven from a stationary engine so here's a link to a club over here that might be able to help. Www.wealdpower.co.uk Is that a bit of a model A hotrod i can see, tell me more, and good luck with your pump. Chris
  23. OMG, how long did it take to get that lot out , and put them all away again. An impressive show Matt
  24. Funny you should say that, the owner drove the car in but had trouble restarting it. They pushed it into the line up and i left before him so don't know what the problem was
