Just a quick " Hi " to The Community. Found this site after trawling through various sites trying to locate the user manual for my Ransomes " Conquest " and , lo and behold, found that a member has them on his page!
I live in England ( o.k. I`ll get my coat ! ) in a little place on the coast called Southport. Some of you may be familiar with this place since there is quite a well known lawnmower museum based in the town not five minutes walk from our house. (
www.lawnmowerworld.com )
I have only recently acquired my machine having purchased it from a guy selling agricultural bits `n pieces at a local ploughing competition. I have not touched, or even seen, one of these machines since I was a kid and was surprised when I found out how rare they are.. It has the original decals and paintwork which give it that wonderful patina of age.. I am not going to repaint it.
So, there we go. I am heavily into all aspects of steam, heavy plant, antiquated machinery etc. etc and look forward to reading what you guyz out there get up to.
Best Regards
Gordon
