Peter Shields has been collecting vintage machinery for as long as he can remember.
He has been a member of the Antique Farm Machinery for about 15 years and said it brings him a lot of enjoyment.
"I buy [engines], restore them and sell them ... I've got quite a few engines, seven actually and a whole heap that will never run," Mr Shields said.
"There's one in the corner that doesn't run, but it's a James Martin that was built in 1920 and another that is a Lister J, which was made in 1916."
Mr Shields said he is amazed at how far agricultural machinery has come since he left the farm in 1965.
"The machinery is fantastic now," he said.
"I finished driving tractors in about 1965 and you were sitting out in the sun and had to watch what you were doing and steer it.
"Now, you've got a GPS and you don't have to worry, you don't even have to steer it."
