[Farmall] Whats new(old) in your shop

[Matthew Gray]

i still have my SAMECAR is various stages of restoration

i have a engineering cutting the cancer from the cab.........bit more then i 
wanted to do, the chassis is complete and living in a shed at my buddies (he 
owns a sandblasting business)

I also brought a honda ATC70 to tidy up and pamper, its the 3rd honda trike 
in my collection, someone needs to look after these pieces of history too

waiting on a orginal air filter, carby kit, and getting a new throttle cable 
made, this one backfires and leaks around the bowl,

we have had it running, its a laugh, so small,

o yeah, forgot, its summer here :o))
