@Bevoin1970 I think many of them ended up in the junkyard when they become outdated!
That's why so few are left.

@Jobergg Exactly the same situation in england too, something new comes along and its goodbye to the old stuff. Thankfully there are people out there, with a strong love for these kinds of machines, and so some do get to live another day. Thankfully for us to see.
I know we live in different countries and speak different languages, but when it comes to mechanical things like these we are all together in our love of old iron from our past. Its a nice feeling to know we have common ground.
