    Want to see your car here?

    Want to see your car here?
    It is very easy, full details HERE
    I posted that over 2 months ago.
    Due to being inundated with replies (none!) I decided to put a pic of my tractor here instead

        The paint was sourced by MF from various places, so an exact match might not be possible. The following are all codes for the same colour.
        MF red--72598
        MF red--70837
        MH red--70364
        MH red--70837

        Ditzler/PPG 70837 is probably your best bet.
        Tractor Red (M-1017) was the original specification for Detroit built versions, but no longer available direct from them.
        Hope this helps

        There is always ebay of course

            give us some details like how long youve had it and what your plans are with it (a decent sized description) and i dont see why i cant go up

            PS. dave, i especially like the mods youve done.. the retractable aerofoil which doubles up as a rollcage and 'bucket' seat

              You are mistaken. My tractor is taxed and insured, is in daily use, is roadworthy and probably worth more than your car.

              As Dan said, do a write up and I'll post it.

                  We got there

                  So how much do you reckon your car was worth then, and now?
                  My tractor hasn't changed, still roadworthy and taxed/insured and used (almost) daily. I reckon my tractor is worth somewhere around the £2k mark as it is.
