yeah nah, another bloke with too much time and money on his hands. good for him I guess
give over mate, restoring old gear keeps the history going. not everything's about money
bloody love old cats! my granddad drove one back in the day. good to see em kept alive
ok but why does anyone need a tractor that old? seems like a waste when new ones are way more efficient
lol what a load of shit. you ever tried to get parts for a 50s dozer? it's just nostalgia wank
that's a proper piece of kiwi history right there. bet it's worth a pretty penny restored

yeah fair call, but it's not like he's saving the world. would rather see him fixing up a community hall or something
another diesel mechanic making his hobby tax deductible no doubt. classic
true, but new ones cost what a house does. this bloke probably built it for a fraction of that
good on him for keeping skills alive. half the young blokes today couldn't fix a toaster let alone a machine like this
you kidding? his shed's probably got more tools than a mitre 10. get real
old stuff was built to last, not like the plastic crap from china now
too right. my old man could rebuild a gearbox blindfolded. now they just swap out whole modules. no skill left
