looking great lad.  is that a new 7740 you have got?

im there too.

thanks lads.

i wanted to have a more suitable size trailer in accordance with what we have on our farm.

I've found some Fraser decals if you still need some

makin up some decals myself. thanks anyway lad. drawbar is a good job. ;)

the new massey ferguson range?

not sure of model numbers but at a local massey dealers open night looked around a few and i thought they were oversized for their hp.

the one i looked at would be the equivlent of a mf 4255.

pictures of it behind an 8340, and behind 7740 and taarup double chop.

This is my first attempt at one of these,

I cut the rear section of the britains marston trailer and then joined the end of it back in, shortened the chasis to suit, changed the tail door to pivot at the top rather than an up and over door, replaced drawbar with a white metal one from pdc. cut sections from backdoor and replaced them with wire mesh, moved axles further back as well as the position of the tipping rams, repainted it all to fraser colours.  just need the decals now.

yea a 165 mark1 was just a new model of the 65

but with the 212 engine it has to be a mark 2.

sorry to hear of your loss peter.

Regards Ryan

i may be mistaken but is that the same back end as a massey ferguson 65?

it looks to be the same engine as was in our 165, ( the 212 engine).  its by far the best engine ours pulled far better than the ford 6610 we had.

Got my ernest doe ford 7000 yesterday.

but, i was a bit disapointed in it, the mirrors on the doors are too high, there is no dual power lever inside cab and i wasn't convinced about the seat either.  maybe im being too hard on it?

What does anyone else think?

ernest doe limited edition ford 7000

Is there anything you cant make Brian.

looking great as always lad.

looking good noel,

the mchale looks great behind the ford.

7000 and Taarup

Q Cabbed 7610 and the 7000

few more 7740 and 8340

It's nice but it's a six-cylinder so better as a 78, 82 or 8340

your wrong im afraid

its based on a britains tl 80 so its definately a 4 cylinder

my new 1993 7740 and taarup double chop harvester

thanks Murray

i want to add handrails and extra worklights to my britains Tm's.

could anyone tell me where i could get these from?

Thanks

Shes restored to a very high standard

never seen one like this before, very intresting

looking good Brian

pictures look good with the silage in the background.

stunning collection, not only are they all boxed but the majority of them are limited editions and hard to get.  im jealous

looks great, especially the muddy tracks in the grass.

great looking set up you have there, jd 7720 looks the part.
