Country Boy


Spotted near a country trattoria at the weekend. New one on me. Diplo?

Nuffield...rahter nice I think.

Never mind the tractor. That looks like a Willy's CJ6 finished in blue behind the Suzy at the back. Rather nasty home made hard top. Unmistakable rear wheel arch. Sorry. I'll just tighten my anorak strings.

Ah yes - VERY Nuffield, distinctive font to the name plate. I think the field boy was made under licence in Italy, quite rare - snap it up Ron, you know you want to.

Toby - that hard top sniffs of series from where i'm sitting

Toby Savage said...

Yes Diplo. I though that too actually. Butchered toi fit the Jeep.

Never mind vehicles even; what I want to know is, what's the knife wielding dwarf from 'Don't Look Now' doing in the sitting room? Perhaps Donald Sutherland drove this tractor into the shed, leaned forward, pulled the 'STOP' knob and felt the weight of the day slip from his shoulders as the tractor shuddered to a standstill (see blogs passim). And as for 'Country Boy' (anagram: Bony Outcry) we must kneel before Diplo for his extraordinary knowledge of all things agricultural.

Ah yes, the Italian-made Nuffield Field Boy...wasn't there a Tunisian versions: the Rent Boy?
