Hi Rob.
The South aust carrier that i bought 37 years ago serial number 2300,was a Worths tractor,you know where it came from I took you there to get an engine for you carrier, Percys father bought it from Worths after the war and they used it to snig timber, Cedar in fact until someone found out where they were getting it from.they also had a brand new set of British track, that I got at the time, I also bought a Ford tractor sometime ago,they are not as rare as some people think, but never the less always a nice find, Regards Ron

I reckon I would forget my head if it was not screwed on, with the two carriers I got about two weeks ago, there is one of the winch pulley set up fitted to one sprocket, I will take a pic and post it Regards Ron

Hi Ron - why am I not surprised that you had one of these. Two days ago I had never heard of these and now they are everywhere. What haven't you had? You know what will happen now? Rod will be after you for the winch pulley and then stay with a Worths Tractor restoration.
Bob

Hi Bob,well I reckon in this case its six of one and a half a dozen of another, you see I have a full set of top amour, so its in for a penny and in for a pound,
I had six matildas at one time and a fully restored Diamond T 980, complete with ballast body, and various carriers, it was easy in those days plenty of goodies,

Ron FYI "She who must be obeyed" has been broken the news and apart from a bit of a rant we are good to go, so I will be in contact. Since the current hull is now to remain unchanged I have a lead on another to work with... will keep you posted.
Look forward to the piccs of the pulley, I suppose last Monday neither of us had any idea of a Worth???? Rob..... |
