Chris Wilson Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Eat my dust, peasants... 3 cylinder diesel, 1961, seriously big wheels, superb traction, can't wait to get it on the dyno Looked at a dozen wrecks of later model tractors, decided to go retro and buy something with character. Cute huh? http://www.chriswilson.tv/35_5.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I used to drive one of those! Although it had a low range box added. It could do 1mph flat out in 1st! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I bet tyres are expensive for something like that. Looks like it is in good condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 Back here now, and it is very nicely restored, I have to say. I'll get a few decent pics next week. Only fault so far is it doesn't appear to be charging. looking for a few implemenst now, a post knocker, a roller and a topper, and front end loader. I am now into nerdy vintage tractor magazines, I must be getting REALLY old.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
