FordsonET6 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Hi all, My name is David and I live in Rural New South Wales Australia. I have a Fordson ET6 1948 build with a Flathead V8 which I am restoring to use in my business as a Gardener/Lawnmower and Greenkeeper. I am going to fit a Tipper tray on it and use it for my gardening run. Should be very distinctive. I will be changing the electrics to 12volts and putting a few more modern bits and pieces on it. I will keep the outer facade the same as orginal but the mechanics will be up dated slightly. I hope to be able to find some bits and pieces for my truck within the people of this forum. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airportable Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Hi David, welcome to the forum. Love to see a pic. or two of the truck, break me in slowly though. Had to sell mine a couple years back :-(. Wish I had kept all the parts books, manuals though. Good job you have there, from a ex. lawn mower service fitter. Andy.

Hi Andy, Here are some pictures of the old truck, I had to tow it out with my 4wd ute before we could load it onto the trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FordsonET6 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Hello there, are you helping to find the lost and buried spitfires? No, I am not but we do have the only two flying Spitfires in Australia at our Aviation Museum plus the only flying Boomerang in the world.
