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

Many happy returns Mark and all the very best

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 😀😀😀

Four tyres and tubes fitted now and ive unloaded it from the van, i'm at Ardingly this weekend so will do photos Monday

All loaded up with 4 Wheelhorse's ready for an early start

That's amazing ! didn't think it would have come out that easy, I see you used a land rover would't the Bolens pull it  

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

I took the Wheelhorse up with me to do a bit of towing

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

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
