Previously mentioned earlier in this thread on page 3, the first ever Massey Harris gathering in 1986 took place in Northern England at Alnwick.
The second Massey-Harris gathering from around the country was organised by The Mid Shropshire Vintage Club, member Brian Smith was instrumental in bringing together like minded Wallis, M-H and M-F enthusiasts from around the UK, this event took place on 6th June 1993 at Shrewsbury Agricultural Showground. The feature event was well sponsored by M-F at Coventry and local M-F dealers Shuker's of Shrewsbury.
By this time John had taken delivery of his family wide front Green Challenger from my collection and he too made the journey to Shrewsbury with this rare tractor, together with his son and daughter who had done some repainting and preservation of the tractor since getting it back to Wales and in the family once again.
So this wide front Challenger made it to the first two M-H featured events in the UK.
Here is the poster from that memorable event in Shrewsbury.
