Hello Folks
I'm in Southland, thats at the bottom of the South Island, New Zealand. We live on the outskirts of Invercargill (an agricultural service city of some 50,000 or so souls) on a ten acre block.
I have a 1951 D2 Cat, in very nice condition, that I aquired on a bit of a whim - sort of drawn back to my youth - I was raised on a mixed dairy farm/hill country block in the Marlborough region, and we had quite a bit to do with D4s there.
Anyhow having gone from no tractor (we contracted in any work required) I now have quite a bit of interest and have friends with various tractors that I help keep going and play with.
So - I'm more of a small scale practical user than a vintage or restorer sort of guy.
Cheers - Foster
