We bought a horse drawn carriage, made an A frame to fit a tractor, and hey presto, the perfect wedding vehicle!

Congrats on the wedding, and well down on the carriage conversion.
Hope you both had a great day.
There could be a future money earner here for you, with your tractor drawn wedding carriage?

Thanks guys! Kev, we have thought about hiring the tractor and carriage, and driver out for a day, however I converted it in such a way that you can swap the drawbars over in seconds, so we may sell it. Just have to see what happens!

Henk, i do try and look after her and her the same, but my wife gets fed up of me washing oily things in the sink and the dishwasher :lol:

Just incase your wondering, i am the bloke in the carriage in the second picture down

Congrats.... Let the wife know she will be sold before the Fordson if need be. That should be put her in perspective of the order of things.... :wink: Dandy Dave!
