HVC Rally

[Stormin 4,458]

 Started loading up for the rally today. First the Commando 800 C-81, followed by the Black Horse C-121 and finally the Mountield 11hp that's going in the auction. I did wonder how I was going to get the non running Mountfield, broken throttle cable, on the trailer. Recycled hospital bed to the rescue.

Are you going to take the bed with you to get it off

[Stormin 4,458]

  I think it will run down the ramps on it's own Chris.

 

  Tomorrow I've a cattle trailer of stuff to take, then take it back to the farm to be loaded with more. Saturday morning, another trailer we loaded this afternoon with Massey Ferguson parts for the auction to take. Then back for mine.

  It's going to be a tiring few days.

  We had a good day for the rally. The rain, forecast for the day didn't appear, though rather windy and coolish.

  The Mountfield I took didn't make the action. Sold while still strapped on the trailer.

 Good to see two of our Scottish members travel down from Fife with a Wheel horse.

Looks to have been a good show Norm, lots of nice stuff there and a good variety to look at

Thanks for posting the photos. I do like that diesel tractor in its original state. Just delightful.

The Eicher is one of only two known to be in this country.

 

Was a little cool, Nigel. But nothing to us northerners really.
