This is at a garden centre on the highway and they make great coffee and we often stop there.

I can't imagine how much fun it would have been to sit in the iron seat bouncing around over the axle for a long day in the blazing sun!

Don't understand what you're on about there Jim? That tractor looks to be in fine shape with just a bit of patina that needs buffing out! Looks to be nearly ready to give the operator a truly glass smooth ride as well.

Now as for the strong drink before bed that you recommend .... well, I can heartily agree with that at least!!!    ;c)

Pretty sure this one would be beyond restoring.
Would have felt it driving this for a whole day over rough paddocks, definitely would have needed some strong alcoholic drinks before falling into bed before getting up and doing it all over again.
