Hi MJ,
I agree that the photo posted by Wizzo is in fact a Ruston Hornsby made in Lincoln, England, very confusing as the name is so similar but worlds apart.
Thankyou for the contact at Boston which I will follow up shortly, its a small world as I see you live in Newark so I expect you are a member of the Newark Vintage Tractor Group. Last July I marshalled the tractor section of a classic and vintage show at The South of England Showgound, Sussex and met Bernard Saunders and his Fordson Doe Triple D and know your area well as recently I sold houses in Lincoln which I had owned since 2002 and forty years ago I traded in the area within the pig (hog) industry for a company based in Spilsby, Lincolnshire.
Getting back to Rushtons, in the last few day's through other sources, I met up with a New Zealand Doctor working for the NHS in Bristol, England who has a good friend who owns over 200 classic and vintage tractors in NZ and is currently restoring a Rushton and about two years ago this Doctor made contact with another farmer in Suffolk, England restoring two others and said when he has the time he will give me all the contacts, so it's now all coming together, so if these other contact names are not already members of this forum, I may be able to encourage them to join.
