My wifes dad quite farming about 13 years ago and parked his Massey 33 in the shed. He tried to donate it to a couple of antique farm equipment clubs but no one would ever come and get it so one day he asked if I wanted it and since it's been in the wifes family since it was new and the price was right I said OK.

I get a kick out of watching him lite up and can only guess at the memories it must bring back for him.
