Some of the implements seemed cheap.

only took an interest in the ploughs and they were expensive. Auction fever!

 

[JLTate]

I got my purchase - Ransomes Cropguard sprayer. £50

Truck was an absolute bargain at £700 I thought

 

[motrac3a]

yeah ,container must have been worth that. Then again who wants one nowadays? It'll.cost you a fortune the keep it on the road

 

[JLTate]

Container is on Richard Bell's page at £950. I would of thought for people taking classic kit to rallies you wouldn't of got much better. It drove out and to its new home and sounded well.

we used to run an old 7.5 tonne wagon and it cost an arm n a leg to keep it on the road. They deteriorate quickly when only used occasionally. 4x4 n trailer suits me better. I didn't see the lots sold that were put in at the end. Do you know what the p/p e27n and the mf178 made?

 

[JLTate]

E27N p/p made £1700. The 178 made £8,000 I think?

strong money for the 178!!! E27N I would say was about market value

 

[JLTate]

Very strong! The Fordson Dexta made £5,500!

I think we all should have had some lots entered!!

 

[Nearly]

I know the person who put the 178 in feels a little guilty at the price.
That's very unusual!

Restored - good rally condition. I think Les bought it already done the dexta.

No loader / no cab. Basic Dexta

What would it have been worth in working clothes but good condition?
