The Fordson Tractor Pages Forum

Offended at the thought of spending around £55 + postage on a pair of grills for the Power Major....

One cardboard template, one old screen from some washing plant, a slitting disc on the grinder, some Fordson Orange and a couple of hours later....





I think they quite look the part

Nice grills. Congratulations Halloween.
Salvador.

Thanks Salvador.

I know some purists will argue about the colour, but I had the orange in my shed!

Halloween, look's good! Almost identical to the early ones.....and yes they do look good in orange.

If you need grills (chaff screens) to keep bits out of your radiator, on a working tractor, thats fine. If you are restoring the tractor to be like an original I would pay the £55!

Definitely going to be a working tractor Fenhayman. I can't afford it any other way

In that case well done in making them so well.

These look really good. Just like the originals, done in the true spirit of restoration make do and mend! They are a real credit to you.

Thanks Paumass, make do and mend is exactly right!
