Quick update on the paint. Have now painted the engine cowl,petrol tank and engine base plate. and the match is spot on. Must admit under flouresent light and trying to take flash photos,a strange phenonomen happens, the green looks pink on the photos. well I cannot post those so when the first opportunity arises i.e. sunshine, will take it ouside and take some in natural light.

I had a similar thing happen in the last week. Didn’t think anything about it at the time. How does one know when the 30days are up? I don’t remember the date I came on here.

Hello Alan Rogers
I read the post you’ve put in your answer and I’m very interested in your knowledge about Gravely Overseas in Devon. Another man ansewering in the post is “Rollo Man”: how can I join him as he said that he has got some books and brochures about model D? Thank you
You said that parts, coming from USA, were assembled in Devon: are you sure? This can be true in a first time (WWII) but after I guess that the tractors were totally produced in Devon. What do you think about.
In the “general talk” I’ve put a post about a “ghost factory” as nobody in Buckfastleigh remember the Gravely. Also I want your opinion about that!
Anyway I want to thank you again for this post which showed me something new

Thank you very much Alan for the post and the pics in it. This is the first time that I see an australian decals. My friends of the Gravely Tractor Club Of America will enjoy it, sure!

Nice to see something personalised. Look on the Gutbrod site and you should find some good pictures of ploughs to suit. There were lots of attachments available and Chester Hudson may be able to help you there. Twin ploughs may be an option as I have those for my Allen.

Thanks for that. Anyone any ideas on original colour or a better photo of the decal ?

[vhgmcbuddy]

Did you get new o rings to go in the on/off valve ?

[vhgmcbuddy]

Stuart, can you email me on paws44@btinternet.com Phil

[vhgmcbuddy]

That’s got to be a bargain, I don’t recognizes what it’s parts of. But if I follow your post I will probably get the answer.
