lockwood from america ain't it, got a couple customers wif em

ha ha!..........this is a interesting read its a harsh reality that a lot of mainstream operators only require tractors to last to the end of warranty.......so why build something that will last longer....... would you own a red landini marky?

its funny, the more money we make, the more we spend on nothing branding and asthetics do nothing for the function of the machine, but as farmers generate wealth, they spend on the two above things, and trueth be known, it don't help bring the harvest in but thats the un refined, crude side of me coming out (and i just finished watching mad max 3 on tv) there are a few conventions or ineffectencys in society.........ha ha!........this is a good example of one of them ha ha! damn it, i is thinking too hard now.......... i reckon SAME is a good example of this, tractors started crude looking, got nice and shapely in the 50's.......hit hard times in the 60's and 70's..........smacked out some basic looking machines, then figured out in the 80's and 90's people liked looking at there tractors, so SAME employed a designer to make there machines stylish ha ha!......and some people will say they still ugly ha ha! that brochure, they reckon alloy, magnesium, alloy compounds will find there place into machines like the fancy MF caravan in the picture ha ha!.......... betcha fany has the odd alloy bit on her marky

what ya reckon! makes me want to find a caravan and go camping ha ha!

i wondered why this japanese brochure written in english was on a italian website........... \ ..... i will email the guy who put the pics up on the website ...........update.......no luck with him might email komatsu in a few days i found another

where was the pic taken? is that the one they gave to the queen?? i think there is 3 of them here in NZ........one still operating.........well pulled out for vintage rallies

didn't komatsu built the little IH 284's?? or am i thinking of something else i am in a bit of a bind in my search, i cannot get my computer to understand the Japanese symbols that come out of the translater websites, so they don't seem to go into google good........ i is going to my truck to get a hammer

japan i guess....but i dunno how to find any more info on them......komatsu seems to have denied all knowledge.........couldn't find any thing on the company site these were in the albums at the MMT forum, its italian, and amazing what pictures they have in the galleries over there

is it me or is there a editing fault with that MF1200 on the front cover?? do they all have this fault ha ha!

i swear i see something new everyday on the net!! anyone seen one of these before

few Ebro come here , i have a customer with one, its a 460? dark blue, square, ugly, apparently its a renault based unit?? i think its a 3 cylinder there is a 470 forsale on trademe at the moment they say its a MF175 clone http://www.trademe.co.nz/Business-farming-industry/Farming/Tractors/auction-151482258.htm that one is in the same town as that MF135 with 124 hours on it gloves might be a good idea, i get funny looks and the classic tractor has a passionate following here, believe me it goes from house to house, like a lady in the night.!!!.......one of the mechanics i work with is from cornwall, and he about shed a tear when he saw the kidd forage harvesters..........and the county lifeboat tractors great effort............

SAME DA30 )) need to find you a picture of the italian log loaders they put on tractors, its got a centre boom, mounted above the engine

good read mr day that MH121 is very impressive, but its too perfect ha ha!........i would like to take it to the sand pit, but not want to scratch it......... what it needs is front linkage, a buckrake and huge wieght on the back, then you would have something ha ha! the steel track crawler article is a laugh.........makes driving anything new sound dead boring....... thanks for the great read, the spain wrecking yard took me by supprise, i been searching the used tractor sites in europe, posting pics here and post some to marky (ebro MF155?! with 20000hours on it)...........and found out you beening looking into those places also ha ha!.......spanish JD's would be interesting to find some nice ones (you never thought i would say a JD is nice huh)........JD in spain is really a whole new chapter, just like IH in mexico

ya short run publication?........like those ones that gibe you parts of a model, to build up over 25 issues....ha ha! i thought CT mag covered the blue and red ones pretty good! and the big yellow ones like this month!........ ;D

mudders are the legendary machines of the green vegetable fields built for working tall green crops, row crop work, playing in the mud......ha ha!.......harvesting i mean lots had creeper boxes in them, and pretty simple in design fiat built some good ones, the fiat 80-66dts mudder was common here, so were the deeres wish i took pics of them, chained together, pulling a small trailer, up to the axles in mud ha ha!.........either way the crop had to come off...one of the most unusal i have seen was a iseki T6500 mudder, it was imported second hand from japan, was used as a recovery tractor at a airport........bloody kiwis built a harvester round it, and thats what its been doing for the last 15 years ha ha! dunno if MF built a mudder did they?......they built a few high crops

http://www.ollieoliver.com/gb/tractors.php oooo everyone needs a mudder, or a tractor with a detriot slung in it

you guys concern me, ha ha!..........i have seen the way you english guys build tractors.............you may find this the the nuffeild with the best brakes ever, might even have a lombardini, or perkins or something..... be interesting if anyone actually knows the specs of the machine, i wanna know if its a carraro born machine.......they weren't bad, JD, Renault, Valtra and every manufacturer who wanted a 4wd front axle thought so ................ANDANDAND....i have been talking to carraro customer service, and they still have rooms and rooms of manuals, parts, and information........and i don't quiet tthink they know how to use it to best support there old tractor customers, i have a friend in italy who is restoring a carraro 6500dt tractor...... wonder if they were sold by the same company that pushed 4wd nuffields into italy

i can't remeber ha ha! it was either a TEA20 or iseki 4451 or 7000 first off farm paid job i drove a iseki7000, fiat 70-66Sdt......was the main tillage machine, then that was replaced with a same silver 90 didn't get to drive tractors that you guys consider mainstream until later

its actually 1200 euro, i think it doesn't look like anything nuffield thou..........wonder if nuffield brought it off carraro, stamped there own name on it to sell to the italian public to complement other nuffield models italy is the land of untold storys with ag machinery........

hey hey, its a one piece bonnet...........those italians are thinkers! now that cab is a work of art!

i am guessing it lost its hood at some point, and got another, what you reckon

ok..........whos got one, there is one here for sale in italy,.....built in 1967?........1200 euros, + deliver http://www.trattoriusati.com/ i imagine you get that to england, and mr day might included in his perodical........ha ha!
