just wondered...

New tractor then Mr Showman ??

With the other new arrival the Landmaster has been moved round, still in the same shed though...

Good idea Chris that Raider is a great tractor

Nope !!

Great set of photos Neil, we did not make it to GDSF this year, perhaps next year... I do like your Minor pickup as well...

Great montage Ian, just waiting for my royalty cheque now !! :D

It will be returned to the correct colour in due course This one is not top of the "to do" list it was a case of getting it home and sorting it out as and when

T'is true I tell ya !!

That's the last one (yes really)

Thanks chaps

Yes, another new tractor !! Collected today from Hampshire it's a 1979 International Cadet 85 riding mower, currently in a fetching (?) shade of purple, this will be changed to the correct white livery in due course Battery was knackered so not had it running yet, new battery on order Seems all there apart from the wrong seat, thanks to Mr Showmans eagle eyes at the Festival of Transport last weekend I do have the correct seat in stock Deck seems reasonably sound, weighs a ton like they do !! 8hp B&S in it, dates according to the lists I have to 1979 so quite a late one in IH terms Here's some photos, we took the seat off to get it home hence why it is not in place in the early photos

Youtube clip worked for me, yes you're right very similar but bodged a lot !! Thanks mate

Great photos, looks like you both had a good day !

Looks bigger than 4hp but I could be wrong...

Once I have found the number under all the layers of paint !!

Briggs and Stratton, about a 5hp I think

Saves on tyre wear on the trailer !!

So is it in line for some trailer hauling duty then ?? Would make a great towcar

I know where you are coming from, think big sometimes... I bet that does not hang about !!

That's nice Gareth

Yes Ian, the chassis and rear fender should be Landmaster blue and the engine and bonnet should be white

Thanks mate

Nah, its not that bad....yet....

Thanks Charlie
