nice find steve , just hope that chaps got plenty of backend parts to cope with all that new power going through it , if i remember rightly , they had crownwheel & pinion troubles with them , basicly it wasn't man enough

err...... i was comenting on how easy us southerners have it & slight hillocks we occasionaly encounter sean, ;D couldnt possibly comment on the foragers , there's no fun in any of it nowadays, no sooner have you greased the trailers up these big machines are done by lunchtime , all in too much of a hurry for my liking

fordmajor do you actually read the replies ? nice looking tractor brian , i must say the old britains casting looks so much better than the new one

well i wouldn't buy any of them gav , if i were you i'd get your boss to buy some nice re-built nuffield 10-60 & a few MF 35x's & a couple of dexta's go back to a probably less stressfull working day , stop for lunch with your work mates , hunk of bread ,block of cheese , maybe an onion, & apple, a cold bottle of orange squash & a bottle of luke warm tea kept in an old sock ,enjoy the sunshine & working close to hand with your machinery not sat 10ft away from it in whats basicly you're own little world & once on that nuffy, buster can run up & down with you , snuffle round in the ditches & hedges & keep fit , i wonder how many young tractor drivers would cope without all this fandangled technology

i remember potato planting before all the bed formers , bed tillers , liquid fert etc. etc ploughed, rotavated , planted & ridged later when the tops were through ! have to ask mate as been out of the loop for a few years , why are you undersowing wheat with grass/clover?

nice build graham, you'd be surprised how many people still use them ! i've even persuaded a few to use parts from old ones to help keep the dust down for when i have to blow into sheds . will have to find some to take pictures of now ! whats the betting i dont find one set up ready for use !
-
nice build john , you getting tired of being covered in dust running that baler on your 35 than

Nicks newist tractor, David brown /Case 1390
MJB1 replied to Kiwi6920's topic in FTF Member Machinery
pretty sure she is although i may be mistaken \ , i've broke three in the past , one hauling silage & one hauling wheat , both 2wd , & one on a 1210 matter of fact most 4wd 1390 versions were put on loaders ! still lovely little tractors & reasonably cheap over here , they just seem to be a tractor that gets over looked unless of course it's a comemerative edition 13/14/15/1694 my old 1494 -

MJB1 replied to Kiwi6920's topic in FTF Member Machinery
well that looks half sensible nick , unless there's someting really wrong it looks to be mainly cosmetic . all white mudguards would make it an 82 onwards ? looks to be the split cab type as well , what year is she nick ? nice to see the spanner controlled hand throttle, those roll pins were never man enough for the job & a bonus to see an ECU lever that hasnt been snapped off looks like you'll need a knob for your 4wd lever though nice buy & they sound great . tractor tim's grandad had one but that one suffered from a glazed block , don't know what happened to it \ -
don't listen to them mate , he / she ? does it matter i'd have been happy to call my tractor ............tractor \ even fergus would have done , but oh no not with this lot it's got to be calld something exotic , like doris or edna , so mines now called cherry ? short for cherrycalypso ? what ? what was wrong with the tractor ?
