Am l right in thinking they'd have been originally painted the same as the engine block? What is the switch on the lefthand side of the dash for?

    Very interesting. Two neighbours of mine in the mid-70s had new 133s with the Lambourn cab. I understood back then that they were basically a 135 without a dual clutch and with a cheaper cab. What confused me more recently was the specifications you find online. Andy did a great job explaining that those specifications relate to the French built 133 which is different. That was news to me. The fact that he has the original leaflet on the Banner Lane built 133 to show it's provenance is exceptional.

    • @philipoconnor2236
      @philipoconnor2236 Před 3 měsíci

      Yes, there is alot of mi's information both online and in book form. All seem to suggest that the 133 was solely French built. But what this man is saying makes perfect sense. I don't think we'd have had them here in Ireland from new if they were French built. It wouldn't make sense when Coventry so relatively near. I hope that was a photocopy and not the origina!! Brochure. My heart skipped a beat when l seen the rain on it!!!

    Thank you for doing these videos. This is Irish heritage for my generation. Great to get the family history from the owners mouth. I hope you continue to do the rest of his collection if he has more. The 135 were a great little tractor and I agree with everything he said about the way they should be restored. That tractor is a credit to him and the passion for keeping his families farming heritage comes across in the videos. I love that. The one thing l would pick out if l was being fussy is the exhaust. They never came black from the factory. It should be white "sandpaper texture" one. Let him tell me l'm wrong. Now l can see why he did that way, matches the cab top. Also l wonder did it ever come the first day with that weight frame? I can't see how it would on a stock farm if his uncle wasn't ploughing

      My father would have bought a very similar 135 from Tullamore Motor Works (Athlone) in 73/74 but it had the scirocco flexi cab and fitted with a stool hitch. Ask this man if he knows or remembers anything about that garage

      @thereseclancy315 Před 8 měsíci

      Thank you for your lovely comments. Yes indeed there will be more videos to come further down the line. Michael Croghan did a fantastic job! In answer to the black exhaust, you are totally correct in saying it should be white. But it shows the rust too easily so therefore I went with the black enamel. And it matches the roof as you stated! The weight frame was added when it was being restored as a safety feature.
