DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 rAt long last, I have purchased an old tractor, dating to the 1950s. I am going to have to put a lot of work into putting her back into a reasonably good condition, but it's a challenge. She is in good working order, but cosmeically pooy, but I am sure I can make her beautiful again, and enjoy going out and about. in her. Just wondering if anyone on here has undertaken a similar project?
Smudge Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 I used to own a Grey Fergie like this one, loved it.

Tuna Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 Thought this was about the release of a new Marvel superhero movie. 'Tractor Man, Tractor Man, he can plough fields faster than anyone can'.
Unabomber Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 just what we need, another tractor on the roads
VLC86 Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 It's funny because if anyone on here strikes me as a crazy farmer who sits at home attempting to shoot trespassers it defo 100% wouldn't be DT.
sphericalfox Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 I always considered DT more of a de-Tractor Man myself.

Webbo Posted 23 October 2016 Posted 23 October 2016 I quite fancy restoring a tuk tuk. Not that I know anything about mechanics but it looks simple enough that I could manage.

DB11 Posted 24 October 2016 Posted 24 October 2016 I thought tractors were simply farm tools. Why on earth would anyone want to buy one just to ride it on the roads?

DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 24 October 2016 Author Posted 24 October 2016 My late father in law drove a Nuffield, which what I ideally wanted. I used to help drive it, with the plough, over fields when he was at hand, and in my spare time.. That put the idea in my head. I hope to get a second hand 2 birth caravan, and hitch them together. I 've had enough of four walls, and grumpy female company. I'm no spring chicken, so I can't hang around too long. I don't exactly want to be like "Toad", in the Wind In The Willows", but I yearn for the simple life, and the freedom to express my self. The world is my oyster, and I intend grab a big basin full of it before I pop my clogs ( gaiters ). I have always been slightly eccentric, but with the passing years it has become more profound. I reckon, another couple of years, and I should be fully prepared.
