That's a nice job David. Yeah, they made Fordsons in the UK long after they stopped here. My Father had an old 1920s vintage Fordson when I was a small boy in the early 40s. Had the wooden coil boxes for the magneto. Hard to start, of course the magnets in the flywheel may have needed replacing. No brakes on the thing. Must have had a lot of rolling friction. Belt pulley which we used to saw firewood. Started on gas, swtiched to kerosene. Hard to steer. Replaced with a 1942 Case S which I still have.
