Aladdins` cave

Was delivering and installing a lathe for a friends father on Saturday. I knew he was interested in old engines but I didn`t think he had the disease as badly as he has. There were all types of Listers and Petters,some fully restored,some waiting their turn.Ruston Hornsby,Massey Harris (I didn`t know they built engines) and loads more that I can`t remember. Ten tractors,again some fully restored,some in process and some waiting.Fordson N,Ford Ferguson(again this was a new one on me) built by Ford with a Ford engine for Ferguson,Allis Chalmers,David Brown Cropmaster and again can`t remember them all. Three cars,an Austin 10 as new,a Rover 110 as new and a Wolseley Hornet wating it`s turn. I was short of time having lost three hours at the roadworks on the Forth Bridge and had a customer to meet in Arbroath at 6pm or I would have spent a lot longer there.Every time I thought I had seen everything he would open another door and there would be a load more.However I`ve an open invitation to look in anytime so next time I`m in the area with time to spare I`ll pop in.
