Thread: Out of the ashes

I spotted this burnt Massey Ferguson 165 on Gumtree a few days ago.

Seeing that it had the same motor as mine which needs a new crankshaft, I thought it would have been a good purchase, but I procrastinated about buying it.
Then the tractor appeared again with the request for tyres.

So I contacted the new owner last night, telling him that I could help him out with some 8 Ply Bartreads that I have pulled off a Land Rover, Robert the new owner came up this morning and we did the deal.
After a bit of a yarn and a look see about the collection, Robert left with four tyres and tubes.
Tonight checking what has happened today on the WWW, I was surprised to see this!
