  1. i too have my last bits gathered going taking my 80s pics now this minute and its featuring fords
  2. My pleasure to be honest the cab wasnt bad at all really, a small bit of rust on the mud guards and the panels just below the windscreen but it looked spotless really. however they were looking at tractors during the winter in england when they came across a mint one going for cheap, so it will just put up the price of the tractor and the one they took off is for sale too. ill try and get a pick of the rolled one when im in the yard but theres not much left of it now just a mangled cab and a bit more
  3. CI models does the whole lot especially for the nh and ford tractors, orders a sample from him a while back and their spot on so will be ordering more once i get time etc

    JCB 3C's

    just out of interest i see in Farm and Plant magazine there is a jcb 3cx sitemaster 88 reg for sale in Co. Cork for ?8500 doesnt look in too bad condition and isnt two expensive considering its 4wd and has the 4 in 1 bucket and forks................ may be of interest to you
  5. i would have thought it would have been another week or two yet, one of the guys i work with is heading off nevxt wednesday to work on yere harvest i forget what part he said again though
  6. should have a few more pics in the next few days showing the plant side of things cos we are heading to Limerick on Friday with the dumpers. there digging out for some new hotel or something should take about 7-8 weeks
  7. they look more realistic then a real plough, when you get a chane could you put a picture up of one of them linked up to a tractor please
  8. in classic tractor a fair while back there was a picture of a jd 7810 2wd from Canadia, and it looked cool the trouble with the 2wd drive is if they do find a hole theyll just kepp digging it deeper and deeper \ even if ur in flat country or not

  10. il be on the look out of a pic of a herron so for you so tm, there a nice looking trailer similar to the kanes and the guy that makes them is actually a brother in lawa as far as i know to the guy who makes the kanes

    Terex

    didnt terex buy out the massey ferguson digger line up? the masseys were mainly a farmers digger and many of the aspects of the early terex backhoe loaders were very similar to the mfs. where i stayed in college i was living right next door to a terex backhoe dealer (former mf backhoe dealer) and he was shifting about an avaerage of one a week from what ive seen. there was always about 7-8 new ones in the yard at any time. in my opinion i think they were aimed at farmers but there are quite a few on building sites now too. a far nicer and stronger machine then the ol jcb sitemasters which are a soft piece of work
  16. ya im pretty sure the herrons are 17 and the kanes are 18, it came up in an argument before about what would take a better load
  17. thats alan with one l just messin with you ol but ps the masterson root trailers would be a good yoke to combat that problem as they have a grate on the front of the trailer allowing you to see into it, hence you could fill the front first ;)
  18. i thought herrons didnt do an 18ft trailer, a guy near me has a few and as far as i know there 17ft i couyld be wrong though
  19. lovely set up john, if i was you id load the front of the trailers first puts more weight on the drawbar and hence transmits it to the back wheels for better grip (just messing with you)
  20. well done it looks great and nice to see a model redrock at last. there usede be alot of them around my way up to recently but they have been replaced these days by kanes and herrons
  21. i was too lazy to look up to see how many days it had so said id play it safe but well say the 30th and leave voting last for say five days that should give everyone enough time to submit their voting preferences
