35s must be one of the oldest bits of plant that are still on daily use ? The amount round here is still amazing ...and the state they are in.

Oddly enough . Yesterday I was working on a small family farm (plumbing in an annexe) and took a photo of their working scraper tractor.
My dad used to milk on this farm 40 years ago. Showed him this photo and he said that was the old tractor THEN that he used to use , and that they bought a new one to replace it back in early 80s….
Don’t see many like this around.

135 was quite a bit different to the 35. 35 was more like the original Grey Fergy, but a lot better. Used to drive both on a farm / tractor breakers yard 30 years ago and the 35 felt like a modern treat compared to the 20

The '20 was a big improvement over a bullock team, but they but they still needed plenty of development.

I wonder where this will get to.. £9-£10K? Unusual to see a tilty on a machine this age.

Was it the Fishleighs who took the tyres off a car and ran it up and down the railway line when it wasn't being used officially
