That's why I called it a "simple" anti roll bar. It is only ment to stop one single event, but meanwhile I already banged into overhanging tree branches, lintels, etc and it (and me and Iseki) survived without damage. So very happy with it. A bit too high indeed, but who cares.
Totally have the same experience, but opposite; wearing glasses always now to stay on safe side cause without I'd underestimate details in terrain. Another thing is that if you're working on a slope for a long time it becomes so common, you don't realise that if you 'dive' into a pit you were already on so many degrees overhang. Experience counts heavily on mountain/hill-sides. Look at my photos below, it looks like a common field but I need to mowe in low 2nd gear upwards otherwise I'll overload my Iseki.
I've seen cars, pickups, box trucks, buses, 18 wheelers, helicopters, airplanes, all flip and I've seen it. Never seen or know anyone who has flipped a tractor. I have heard of it happening. Been on a tractor since 10 years old.
Well, now you can add to your repetoire "I've read and seen about tractors flipping sideways"
They can buy an apartment in town and ride a bicycle. Oops, I've seen bicycles flip over ....
Yes I'd wish that the politicians that "organised " throw-over of the twin towers, would have used an Inclinometer first so that it actually fell towards building7, in stead of raising only a small fire in it and having to demolish it, which then made it very clear proof of an inside job indeed...
UH! What?
Are you serious you need help !
You never knew building7 was demolished exactly the same way the twin towers collapsed? Well here's some info :
Thanks, it was a one-man show this restauration. Hence the time it took (apart from recovering from my accident and mostly picking up on my motivation after that). The weird collour before came from the car fleet of a company that had all its stuff in this colour. Therefor nobody wanted to buy this Rover and stood in a corner for more than 7 years until I discovered it. That was in the Netherlands. Now in France knowing how rare they are here (I've only seen 3 in the past 22 years!!! the French Series club assembles with about 30 cars) and seen that really every part is still available including galvanised frames and bulkheads, I went for the long run. Invested about 10k€ in it, nowadays they are worth >30k€ in brand new state. Mine is still in daily action so clearly subjective to damages. But that gives it a more natural look. I really love this car.First off, hats off to you and anyone that helped you, you did an awesome job with that restoration, Secondly, ditching the baby **** green for that blue was a good idea.
There are so few old Rovers where I live, and most of those are rotting away on tree lines.
Surprised? That's what you get if you believe the media circus and do not investigate yourself... I'm just an ordinairy guy, did not believe that an aluminium aircraft could penetrate a steel constructed sky scraper build to resist an impact like this and then make it come down like?? well ?? right ! a well prepared demolision, tree times in a row. And the world watched and said: "oh the metal was so hot, it pan caked" yeah sure. Why did survivors hear bombs go off like clockwork before the collapse? Where did the heat come from to melt metal? Kerosine exploded on impact... Think again, before telling me to get help. It simple logic, which you should understand if you're the same type of engineer like I am, and the reason why I love old tractors, cars and bikes...
It certainly is still a daily workhorse, a sort of inbetween tractor-and-car; more mobile than a tractor and the winch is very handy for all kinds of purposes (like descending in a water well of 10m deep and then discovering the battery goes flat, what a laugh my wife and I had, but she managed to get me out alright), on the road too expensive and slow for long distances but towing a boat or fetching haybails goes very well.
