Hi gang; We all have our favourite tractor, be it green, red, yellow or in my case BLUE & ORANGE. As a teenager the farm on the otherside of the road to my parents' home used a 1962 Super & 1958 Power. All my spare time from school was spent on the fender of the Super with the farmer. This is the tractor I learned to drive on, and eventually I was allowed to drive it in the fields actually working implements. So THIS is MY FAVOURITE tractor. When the farmer died, and the farm machinery was sold off, his young son kept back that Super and still has it today. Its not for sale. Eventually I found an identical tractor which had been owner-driven off a small arable farm, never been near cow or pig s**t. This tractor as you see it is totally original. But has Ford 4000 rear wheels which I must replace with correct Fordson Super Major scalloped wheel centres. Its too good & original to "restore & repaint", but needs a little tlc to steering & wiring. Cheers David
