neil 2,398 #1 Posted August 5, 2018 It never ceases to amaze me the lengths that people go to . I managed to find this Very rare to UK RJ58 , (like I need another tractor ) . But hey this one was too good to pass up . It was located in Dunfermline Scotland which is slightly east of Edinburgh and I live 470 miles away in the south west of England . I struck a deal with the chap , made him a good offer he couldn’t refuse , so he made a good few bucks . Now I have the problem of getting it 470 miles away , Och , I’ll deliver it says 🤩 ,so naturally I excepted his offer , I payed the fuel costs happily . Two Scottish chaps set out at 10 pm on Saturday evening and arrived at my house 10 am the following morning , made them a cup of tea/ coffee and showed them around some of my stuff and then we unloaded the the RJ58. Heres what they brought me from Scotland 6 10 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 59,543 #7 Posted August 6, 2018 Are the UK RJ’s notorious for having the green accents, or were those aftermarket mods? That’s quite a trip to deliver, my hat’s off to the P.O. for making the delivery, and congrats on the score! Those implements look like fun in the truck patch!

Retired Wrencher 4,874 #9 Posted August 6, 2018 Neil nice pick up. Have any plans for this like a side car attachment? or a small street racer? I mean you do come up with some nice projects for them other than stock. Enjoy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
