Tractors in preservation[]
A few of these tractors are appearing on the rally circuit as they are cleared out of sheds from redundant orchars and fruit farms. They also have that bit of a difference about them to creat a bit more interest both among collectors looking for the quirky and visitors with a "Whats that factor".
