Looks like a block heater that plugs into the mains.

That Dexta has been stored without use in 30 years and it still started.

(If you don´t make a sence of the Norwegian.)

Wow!

That is the best original Dexta I have ever seen. All that tractor needs is a light wipe with an oily rag to bring up the colour of the paint a little and it will be a show stopper. It is a true credit to the owner for looking after it so well. My father was never so kind with any of our tractors. I had just fixed the front cowel on one of them just to find that it was bent the next day from yet another accident.

Regards, Frank.

P.S. I was not too upset though it was one of those M**** F*******s that I had fixed. I would have gladly scrapped that tractor for three conrods and pistons to go into a P6 E27N. Only half an engine but I am sure that I could have found another one for the last three cylinders.
