Have you considered marking everything with ‘smart water’ type technology eg Select DNA, as per FBHVC article in The Cultivator some time ago. It may not prevent theft but it will enable items to be identified. The signs warning that items are marked should be a deterent.

Al you need to do now Geoff is put all this into an article (serialised) for The Cultivator.

Joe, thanks for the vote of thanks. We are all in this hobby for one reason (well should be) and that is to collect, preserve and use our machines and tools etc. It is not about, ‘I have got a bigger collection than you’ or ‘my restoration is shinier than any body else’, or winning more prizes. The club weekends are for all club members to get together and enjoy our hobby.
Looking forward to the next working weekend.

I use my 1957 Land Rover for most of my towing. The longest journey so far was from Midsomer Norton to Ireland for the world record event 8 years ago. This was the Land Rovers second trip to Ireland.

That reminds me of my days as an apprentice with what was Post Office Telecommunications (now BT) they had a fleet of the enclosed vans. I also drove a TV detector van of this type which had an automatic gearbox. Hope you can make it to Weeley.

The earlier Rotogardener and Rototiller have a different engine. The 80 has a JAP engine. I do have operating instructions for the 80, drop me a personal message with your e mail address and I will send a scanned copy.
