Tractor love...

Me and K decided to take a couple of days on Österlen, once there I found out there was a Ferguson TE20 Grålle Rally in Skåne Tranås that must not be missed. At Skåne Tranås we found a field of dreams, a field of Grålle tractors, restored, untoched with unbeleivable patina and even one with a home made wooden cab, cool.....
There were a bunch of differnt tractors there, one more awesome than the other....
But when it comes to tractors I prefer red heads and there's nothing like the Volvo T21, T24 and T25 series. I just have to get me one of these, preferably with serious patina, can you get more Hot Rod???There were also some nice bikes and mopeds attending....
...and cars including a Dodge Pick Up with some (painted on!?!?) patina and a personal plate with attitude....Cool stuff but what made the day was a Grålle stuffed with 12 cylinders of air-cooled Deutz motor, insane rear tires and an exhaust to be seen and heard!! The owner drove it around with an ear to ear grin, wonder why...Not really wanting to leave but all that's fun has an end, we then went shopping at a bunch of junk/vintage stores and this exercise bike caught my eye but cost as much as a decent T24, I'll have that instead...DP says: Nice weekend away from it all....
