Apologies if I've broken any rules but i'm interested to find out if there are any Dexta lovers near me. I don't really know anybody else who has one so i'll start off............

I own a 1959 Dexta in Tyrone, N.I

Hi Wee59dexta,

i have a 62 super dexta blue and orange just down south from you.

Good to know there is more of us out there, have you found a good source of parts yet, i am looking for a reasonably priced swinging drawbar and cannot find one anywhere.

I'm from the city of Augher. By the way can you advise me of the best place to get insurance locally for my little blue lady. Also I'll be doing a bit of work to her over the winter and will be on the lookout for parts including a nose cone; any ideas on where to buy parts (cheap), nose cones seem to be approx £200 + VAT

i think that there would be a differance in insurance in the ROI and NI.
In the ROI I dont think there is any differance between vintage and moderen
tractors they are treated the same , icould be wrong on this in NI they do make a
differance on age , stand to be corrected :) Gerry
