the showman

I think its a Commando 8 with a 3 speed tranny, the frame in front is a Raider 10, I'll check the numbers out tomorrow when i unload them

Took the misses out today for a forage looking for goodies, it turned into an all day thing but at least she saw what got put into van, i think she enjoyed the day so here's a couple of photos

Wow, that looks like fun, bet it's gonna be wicked on grass at a show

Thanks guys for your kind words, had a fun day playing with my latest haul, finished off by an evening in the pub

Thanks Neil, the one you got me last year only lasted for a couple of hours I'm the same age as the engine in Shak'in Horse

I'm loving that , how much mess would that make on the lawn and patio, don't think I would be Mr popular. At least the Trachorse has rubber tracks

Thats why I'll do it red

It was dark green with black wheels

If I restored it Norm it will be red with off white wheels and varnished wood

I'm a bit stumped now, i was going to restore it and lower it to carry the Trachorse make like a low loader type 4 wheeler now I'm thinking to leave it as is. The only problem is where I live here on the coast it will deteriorate quick as there's very little paint on it

Its meger heavy, i think if i put it on Wheelhorse ill have to fit wheelie bars

Thats nice Neil, well done on that haul

Can't remember Alan, have to have a look Tuesday

Ive got plenty Chris, just trying to match them up

Just had a look in one of my other sheds and found some more tyres, now I've got 2 pairs, the AGs can go on the back and the other pair on the front

Or her bottle collection that seems to be growing daily

Trachorse on the trailer towed by the Rowcrop

I'm thinking the Trachorse

Been after one of these for a while and was lucky enough to find this on my latest haul. Its made by W D Stubbs of Nottingham who are still in business making carts and trailers, it measures 5 foot x 2' 6" and has lift out sides, ive spent a bit of time on it today and got the wheels to go round and the turn table to work, it needs 4 tyres and tubes, it has 1" axles so a bit restricted on swapping wheels. The wheels are 8" and the tyres are marked 14x3 , ive got a few 400x8 but all different tread patterns. Anyway heres some photos

Plant pots ? you've got her attention again Alan, spose i'll have to bring her up again, bugger

Your not on the list then mate

Looks good Norm, you have been busy

Ive got a mug with a brand name on . Wheelhorse

Got to be careful on the next trip Iain, she's coming with me

While i was out rummaging through tractor stuff i was talked into taking some milk bottles as a peace offering for Pam. I think she was quite pleased with them and has washed them all
