Nice clips there james, I assume they're cut from a (present day) video of DB promotional films?

Good for you Ben, best of luck with the new job :)

Nice combination. He could have taken the hubs out of the dual wheels to make it more realistic though

Great detail there Tris Must get me one of those kits once I have a worbench set up

Oh ya, had forgotten about those ones. Like you say though, that's defo not a driven axle so it's probably not a cut-down job

Someone on here used fine sand for bird cages glued down then painted over with grey paint, it came out really well.

Moxys have twin driven rear axles on a walking beam set-up, that's just a single non-powered axle. I don't think it looks like a Shawnee-Poole either, at least not like any I've ever seen.

And not a MUHAHAHAHA in sight :o

just passing by was the owner of these implements with a tractor fitting very well to the age and quality of these implements ;-)

Looks like he fits the age of the implements himself! :D

Just a thought, is there any way to tell the difference between the models produced for Hachette and the general release ones that we are seeing now, besides the packaging?

Nice pictures, at least you got a better day for it than we did in Cooley

Massey and Quicke loader looks well :)

Love that Mattias :P I would put a pre-cleaner bowl on her as well though

you need to pull the bonnet off, then drill the rivet fixing at the front and gentley prize the two sides apart till the front axel drips out

Hmmm, liquid front axle? :D

No it's not a high tech but it does have joystick control on the loader.

it has just over 4000 hours. I wish I could have found one with a few less hours, but I just couldnt afford any of the less used ones.  When I have some pictures I will post them.

Much like the one we have out from the dealer on loan at the moment so, can't remember the year but its only got 2500 hours on it. It has a Tanco T100 with joystick control on it which is OK but the loader is not a real nice fit on the tractor. HiTech would be preferable for loader work as you geta lighter clutch and left-hand fingertip shuttle, but you do get used to the other system. We have a 6550 with Stoll loader and HiTech bought but we have to wait for the previous owner to get his new tractor before he trades it in to the dealer, so we got the 6400 in the mean time.

Ok it was used in a soap called Glenroe farm! now ring any bells??

Yup, that's probably a bit hardcore for our UK cousins though!! :D

Thats why I avoided adding the name!!

Numpty for Colm please! 

Not for spellings last I looked \ \ \

Smiles all round for MB Trac fans this year I think :)

A 1999 Valtra Valmet 6400 with 970 Alo Loader .

Nice! Is it a HiTec one? Does the loader have joystick control?

That looks like a good compromise Sascha

That was in classic tractor a good while ago, it was put in as a prank by one of the programmers apparently. Don't know anything about it being an ex, more likely it was just off some internet site. It was supposed to be wiped when the tractors that had it got a software upgrade, but there may be plenty out there that never got the upgrade \

Gosh, that new styling is ugly!!! :o I suppose they're trying to get away from the old styling inherited from New Holland, could be the Russian influence coming in already, they have been known to come up with some pretty horrific styling in the past \

Not terribly detailed but has very good steering. Rear linkage is not compatable with anything else though so it's a trailer only job unless you want to go modify it

Did they do the cabs on the IH 614s-634s 414s-434s

like this  ;)

That's right

what really annoyed you today?not today but friday

The last thing a customer said to me was it's a bit of a tight entrance mate please be carefull of my new gate : :

Mmmmm, that reminds me of the one I backed into with the JCB during the summer, still need to get it straightened out \ \ \
