I'd hang to your original stuff , as it is becoming more collectable by the day

ok no probs ,just as you mentioned old tractors and they have been at the back of a cupboard doing nothing ,most of his were old david brown t.v.o, dextas, majors, grey fergies ,and a 3 wheel farmall, the old international factory was only a mile or so from where he farmed,all his stuff was sold off or given away when he died ,,, tell you what the doe,s were some animal ,though i heard that some early ones had problems with castings breaking ,i know they were fetching astronomical prices
