Unpacking boxes the other day I re-discovered this copper etching clock featuring a 7000 + Ransomes semi-mounted plough. It was awarded as a ploughing match prize.

I have got the coasters that went with it! There were a set that showed every tractor from the model F to the 7000. They are badly worn now as they have been in everyday use since the 1970's. Sets were handed out to all dealer staff at the launch of the 7000 in 1972.

Seems like only yesterday :(

Brian.
Coasters are just like a good Ford/Fordson tractor,
they just keep on going :lol:

Coasters are also like a human,
they need a constant supply of coffee/tea :lol:

Good to see they have given you 36 years of "loyal" service. Possibly older that some members on the forum.
