Anglo Traction 761 #4 Posted January 12, 2012 Hi Rooster, It was a bit early in the morning over here when you posted!, hence the lack of immediate responses. As Neil says, I think the 2 that he has are probably the only ones in the UK that the RS Members here own. There may be others hiding in people's shed etc that are not Members, but they are pretty rare. I suspect that the 50's era over here were still struggling with the period of Post War austerity and so few Imports arrived. Also, there were many examples of British built equipment available at the time to fill the needs of potential Garden Tractor buyers. Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #7 Posted January 12, 2012 There should still be a few somewhere in Spain after reading page 55 in the second edition of straight from the horses mouth many were shipped to Spain. Jim Sounds to me like those particular tractors were literally beaten into the ground...... I doubt many - if any - survived. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
specialwheelhorse 174 #8 Posted January 12, 2012 If any do exist they just wouldn;t fit our vision of an rj with whatever they sent over for new axles. Might be quit a collectors item now. JIM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
