The Dardanup Heritage Park run by the Brookes family with other exhibitors and plenty of volunteer help is by far the best housed and displayed museum that I have seen. Here are some of the tractors, but there were lots of other things including their own working sawmill which provided most of the building construction timber, especially nice in the cafe/function centre area.

Their first love is IH, so there was a good display of them.






Inter TD24 which purred like a kitten


Tandem Inter 686's


Case 1200 which caught my eye.



Customised Fergie with a Commodore V6 motor


Chamberlain 9G re-powered with a Knocker motor


MF Super 90 & MH 55K



Massey Harris 44K & 744D


Italian Vender bulldozer

They held a tractor pull as a bit of a fun thing but the drivers soon got competitive.


Cockshutt


Chamberlain fitted with a Cummins 555 and 15 spd Road Ranger coupled to original 6 spd giving 90 gears!



The best fun of the day was watching the boys give the MH some exercise!




Extra smoke courtesy of the cold start extra fuel button held in.

Tacho, great quality pics, and the Dardanup ones are excellent. It was good to catch up with you at Fairbridge and put a face to a name. I trust you had a great touring holiday.

The Cummins powered Chamberlain is a 903, is it not? It's absolutely fabulous to hear at full throttle.

Cheers - Ron.
