Hi all,
This is my first post although I've been looking at this site for six years or more, and enjoying all the Fordson tractors here (Particularly Fordson Major Diesels).
We've got several Fordson tractors
They are Super Billy, Billy, and Davie.
Full reports for all of them comming up shortly!

We've actually got three and a half, plus most of the dead engine of the fourth. More on this later, but Super Billy had a no. 1 big end failure and its taken us ages of not doing much at all, but we're hoping to have him going soon. The other one isn't visible in that picture, but it's similar to Super Billy.

The JCB looks good too, very few left in this country with the cab all complete like that, another photo or 2 would be much appreciated!

Re: New but not new
Sorry about not mentioning Mr. MacGregor (the JCB), but as he's post Fordson Major (1975 3CII) he's in a different category.
He actually came from Roy Bridge, the cab I'm afraid isn't as good as it should be but it's all our fault for leaving him outside. At least the exhaust is covered with a Campbell's soup can!
Here's some more pics; can take more if needed!
