TRACTOR WORLD SHOW @ Malvern

[tctractors]

Martyn the man walking around with the green grim reaper outfit and gum boots is a top top Boffin working in Malvern, under that spooky bit of weather gear he would be dressed in a light shrirt and shorts, the gum boots are the standard thing (always) he is a well known "point to look for" in the area, and is by all accounts a sweet chap with an I.Q. way off the scale (at the top, not like me)
On Saterday mornings, 2 fat Lasses' with Beards sit on the Bench seats in the centre of Upton (my local town) scaring off the Seagull's, I will show you them next time you are about, If they were a Letter they would be sent back " Unopened ", see you soon .

Yes Mr Bamford never sent them out looking that good, and to get a used machine looking like thats a lot of work

Must say that there were other makes looking as good.

Dont know how the Judges decide which machine to pick o/a (Some are a bit gilded though, its a wonder they dont add gold plated knobs on some of them ) Over doing it in some cases. but then its a matter of personal taste. I like some of the genuine ex work machines, as you can actually use them.

What is the machine to the right of the JCB 3CIII, just creeping into the photo?

[Martyn Henley]

Looks like a custom JCB telehandler, see the chrome mirrors, and the sea horse painted on the rear of the machine .. could be a wild geuss

I think it's a County Seahorse amphibious tractor - like the one David Tapp of County 'drove' accross the Channel under its own power and flotation.

Last decent one I saw belonged to County refurbishers Jas. P. Wilson.
