I thought you all might also like to see this being in england.

An old digger on a fordson skid unit in Essex somewhere. Theres also a few other tractors there.

Hi Lindsay ... i would say that the one on Ebay is whats left of a MK1 JCB, ..... the second one is perhaps a Whitlock,

Thats alright Martyn, not like i can buy them from here haha, just thought people might like to see the photographs aswell.

Thats good mate, mothers getting there, we thought she would be put back in the mental hospital but it seems not, 27 stitches in one wrist and about 5 or 6 in the other, clearly it was too painful to keep going on the second. Thank you for asking. Ive got a thread in the tractors section of the forum, i was given an Inter W6 on sunday so just thought some people here might be able to shed some light on them.

How is the crawler of yours coming along?
