Any FTP members going to Newark this weekend?

Post by Chris Ivin »

It is the Newark Tractor Show this weekend. Are any FTP members intending to go?

It is a great show, personally I prefer it to the Malvern show in March.

Have never been to be honest.

I much prefer the working days and get to fewer of those than I would like.

Have a good time Chris.

I might well pop up for a look around and no doubt will end up spending to much cash at the parts stands!

Well we popped in on the Sunday and had a good look around.

I so want a Doe triple D!....a real curiosity, am i right in assuming that you have to preselect the gear on the leading unit?

Well done Jacko, a great set of photos :clap:

I went on Saturday, I had a good day though I didn't think there were quite as many tractors there as some years.

Wow, what a great and rare tractors attended at that show: Doe, County, Roadless, Muir Hill, Matbro! :clap: :clap:
Most of these tractors I have never seen in real live, like the Doe and the County Hi-Drive.
May be I should visit the show sometime? :mrgreen:

I really love that County Super Six 1124! 8)
