Most likely but they're not going to be the oven ready sort.

Most will be portioned out. Ready meals, breast steaks, packets of diced meat, that sort of thing. Mitchel & Butler take a lot as crowns (legs and wings taken off) for the Toby Carvery chain.

For those that don't venture in today at work
I got the mudguards all wired up and fitted today
Then the bonnet got a flat down and buff up
I just love the contrast of of the wheels

They look great, it's a fantastic skill you have, if I thought I could afford it I'd send my 135 up to you

If it was anywhere as good as those that you've done and posted on here I'd be afraid to use it in case I scratched it or a foot slipping off the clutch and crashing into my diggerThankyou Martin

They are an enjoyment to use and show off when all painted upIf it was anywhere as good as those that you've done and posted on here I'd be afraid to use it in case I scratched it or a foot slipping of the clutch and crashing into my digger
A new range rover is worth far more but they still use them
Just the tractors don't loose any money

A little update on the 178 been held up with the chrome parts
Seriously thinking king of getting a get to do it ourselves, the tractor would of been finished by now but such as life that's restorations as we say.
The chrome parts are ready in the morning thankfully so tomorrow's pictures should be rather interesting for you all
The weights got the same treatment with abit of filler they were really quite rough examples bad casting defects so 2 got the full smooth treatment while the other 8 got just front and top edges smoothed then some primer and red
Should see a finished tractor tomorrow if nothing breakdown or an unexpected job turns up.

They are the most used and most adapted things we have we have 9 different piece's of framework that we weld bits to for oddball tasks etc
They are very handy
We strip the front axles battery carriers link arms foot plates etc off tractors just so we are left with a bare naked skid unit
Then it all gets hung up and painted so they carry a fair bit of weight when the larger 100 series mf

I was thinking maybe a table with mesh on top would be handy

Ideally what we have been thinking off is a retractable washing line wire rope setup
