The Classic Machinery Network

I attended this event yesterday which was excellent just a few photos for you; the weather held off although it was at times very overcast, still a first class show worth your time attending.

A few more photos for you; the 'coffee pot' Scammell had been fitted with a 10litre Cummins in place of its Gardner 6LW engine, the lump was complete with a 'Jake brake' The Hetzer made by Skoda for the Germans during WW2 is as rare as the proverbial rocking horse do-do as is the howitzer version, can anybody give me the correct identity for the howitzer version?
Plenty to see and do at this show; as I say well worth your time. The owner of the Ford KA complained that his car had four flat tyres and a flat battery- very flat, oh and lowered suspension too.

I went to Welland on the Friday and took some photos mainly of plant, but also of some other things. Here's a selection to start:

2nd batch.

Hi IBH it looked as overcast as it was on the Saturday although it did remain dry; was the Friday dry or did you get any rain? I didn't bother going on the Friday as generally there is not much action on the working field and most people go on the Friday for the auction.

I spoke very briefly to Harry but did not get the chance to speak to Dehane although I did see him over by Andy Thompson; he also brought a B100 Drott to the show that he has sold to Johnny Edwards. I also saw Mike Yates and Julian Carder but did not bump into Paul Walker.

Paul it is a top event with plenty to see in my opinion it's a lot better than the Great Dorset Steam Fair.

From memory it was cool and overcast with the odd light shower that didn't last long and became sunny in the early afternoon for a time.
A few more plant photos (tractors and Land Rovers to come):
