Had to take this 1455 over to a customer for a friend    and saw this Fendt on the way 

Is that where MVO has that new 80 tonne volvo digger digging sand out? would love to see more MVO pics, i love his paint job

I think 4C was doing newray 8 x4 convos, sure he had some at spalding, most of the time you have to make them yourself, i normaly do

just found it as i was trawling the site, any one seen or made this? should apeal to the same fans

Wow check out the tunneling digger on the liebherr stand pic 1st pic bottom left, that is coming to me

Nice pics tim, looks like one nice harrow, you have some nice gear at your work, thnaks for taking to time to post your pics

I am gutted i didnt get  down there to support a friend, Paul henson ,Revesabele class

Some realy nice and odd ball machines hiding down there

Looks very nice, lucky its a 950 and not a 990 or me and the wife would be fighting about getting one 

Tidy ride marcus, mine odes have a loader, just cant work on the tractor very easy with it on as you proberly know, will get pics of the loader later in the week,

just dont drag her down in to high a gear mate , she's only on a 3 bearing crank , too much of that & she'll go bang 

Damn, was hopeing it was a 4  bearing crank not a blinking 3 means its in the same book as the 990

Thanks MJB, only knowen mechanical prob at the moment is the clutch,  yup she is just a tart up job, im not sure what year it is, havent traced the serial number to the year yet

the new roll pin for the hand throtle will be more than man enough for the job

No chance of me glazing a bore, i work my tractors and i have just found a passion in tractor pulling    i recomend it to any one

the linkage and rear remote controls and main gear stick

the pto, hand brake and range gears

range gears are the red handles

and the gear selection chart

Next batch of pics will be it in bits.....

Took some snaps after i waterblasted her ready to remove the cab and split the tractor to replace the clutch

now for the back

inside the cab

A quick pic from the back door before i go to work

i shall take more detailed pics before i split her

I will have pics up , just have to take some before i split it, put the 5 leg rippers on it to try burn the clucth free, the bloody thing just kept pulling, should go well with tractor pulling

thats a nice rattle you been given there nick    looks to be in fair condition , whats the plan full rebuild or just an 'up n running' project ? got to say my old 990 stood under a hedge for nearly 20 odd years & with a bit of patience & persuasion it fired ! good old DB

all she needs is the missing cosmetic bits and a paint and shes restored marcus, i plan on getting duals for tractor pulling, ill put up a pic of me pulling with it later

Well i just got talked into buying this tractor, only 4000hrs on the clock, has ahd a hard life tho, engine runs sweet as a nut, clutch is stuck at the moment tho , mainly a cosmetic job with oil leaks and it will be good as new, its cabed with 4wd, been working on it today but didnt have my camrea so will get some pics when i bring it home tomorrow

should look like this when its finshed

mine has a twin crowd loader on it tho

and mine is a lot rougher looking at the moment

Well final got my a into G and took some pics of this darling,

I was given this tractor and was told it had a con rod rattle, droped of the sump and found it had more than a rattle

dont know how ithe block wasnt damaged from this, #1 liner and piston were killed

Full internal rebuild, head job and new valves got her running like  a clock, then found out the hydro pump was on its last legs, rebuilt that out of 3 old pumps and its as good as new if not better

time for so pics

i know she looks bad but im turing the rear wheels out, the previous owner manged  to break the bloting points on one riim so the dish is welded to the rim, ive got a enginer sorting that for me, then she will be out of the shed ready for the road run next week

only missing parts are the headlights, side lights and grill pannels, 1st time i have ever seen the seat toolbox covers,

shall have more pics when the wheels are on
