Hair Bear Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm Rob, located in... let's just say Hampshire for now, and old enough to know better than get involved in something like this. I suppose you'd say my main hobby is vintage and classic tractors, but this has branched out into anything that appears to be greasy, wet or rusty being if interest. I don't have much room to play so toys are small, but I do have a Tractor from 1938, 2 mid 70's garden tractors, and currently working with a batch of mid 80's ATVs. I can't do 'showroom' restorations because once I've got it working it's playtime for however long it holds together, and then it's back to repairing it again. I think the closest I've been to owning ex-military equipment was a Ferguson TEF20 (JBL635) which had the bonnet painted in RAF blue. Don't know if there was a connection or not. Also an ex-Army Mk2 Ford Escort Estate bought from BCA still with it's MoD reg on the keys (05GX38), I believe originally based at Thatcham although I've no proof. Oh, and I nearly forgot, an Onan 2cyl 3Kv 240v generator, and some army surplus socks, but that's a whole other story. Hopefully I'll learn while I'm here and you never know I might even be able to help. Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
