Stigian 1,234 #4 Posted May 7, 2011 Congrats on the article Neil, I'm going to have to buy the June 2011 edition to have a look now I'm guessing that's you in the May 2011 edition with the Toraktor? Good to see all the 'orse in that edition as well. Edit : Just seen your tractor list, it has a Toroktor in it :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 2,410 #5 Posted May 7, 2011 thanks for the comments guys , i was lucky to get a full page article in May & June Tractor & Machinery, i wrote the story at the beginning of the year . I have aquired a couple more tractors since i wrote the article so im now up to 15, i think some are just parts tractors , I need some timeoff work now to try and get a few projects finished. but i dont ythink that will happen now for a couple of months . The Toraktor needs a new engine so im on the lookout for a clinton engine to put on it to see if she will stil go then i intend to carry out restoration. Unfortunatly my skills & equipment limit me as to what i can achieve, im not that good on mechanical things, although i got an A level in mechanics at school.
