I have also just remembered that you said that you got it as 4wd for the resale value....MARKY FERGUSON... this is your child,,,, would you sell your children... a tractor is for life... not just for squashing a bit of rubbish

Shame on you

Hi Marky
I assume that you have the model to go alongside the new baby, it would be remiss of you not to have one, and of course it has to be an exact match with the same spec

Wonderful Chris, what was the yield last year?
I would LOVE to have just a little bit of land like you have and do what you do, keep up the updates

Ruddy great big Fendt 936 with some sort of roller/cultivator mounted front and back, looked a bit out of place in town centre Warrington

WOW... thanks for sharing... some real rare ladies this side of the water.... much appreciated.
The Fiats caught my eye... the smaller one looks familiar to me.. like another brand of tractor... can't think for the life of me what though
\
Reminds me of a Someca... but they were just last years Fiats anyway

The Bamford Wuffler was yellow and was only wide enough to cover one swath

Great old pics well worth looking at, they remind me of the days when I was actually in the farming business. The hay turner will be a Willy Pheasant and it was made by Lely although I remember them being red, funny how the memory goes

That is a very sad old SAME, a shame to see the old girl like that but I do have to admit they were prone to the odd spot of rust

I'm pretty sure it's a 165 robbo... at least mine is anyway
\
You are lucky it still has the tyres as well.. most of them fell off... they seem to have expanded over the years... or the hubs have shrunk perhaps
You're right
:o
I have just put my glasses on and had a closer look
???
??? I have been thinking it was a 135 doh!
-
looks great i need a cabnit
on the massey self there is a littel i think 165 and trailer go any info on it
The little Massey is a Corgi 135 and the trailer is from my childhood days, I think it was a Britains log trailer, I found it when I was clearing out my mothers loft and came across and old toy box. I used to have loads of tractors when I was a child but when I left home my mother gave them all to the local nursery school, they would have been worth a bit now and been quite rare

Picture from a distance of the whole unit would be nice too
OK Bazza this ones for you
I have just got back from IKEA and I have got 2 extra shelves @ ?10 each, unfortunately the trip cost me ?76 as the boss wanted a hall table and 3 picture frames
\
\
\ ah well a small price to pay really
;)

I'd like to see some more pics of that sometime please Robbo.
Another question...
Do you have lights for the cabinet
- and if not... any plans to have...
I've still not got lights in my cabinet, which is something I really must get around to sorting out sometime in the near future
The short answer is no, me and electrics don't mix, I'm just about OK with a hammer but anything more delicate than that and I need outside assistance, thats why I can't do any conversions I am just too ham fisted and I would ruin anything

Nice one Robbo.... Looks like a bargain for only ?90... good old Ikea...
One question... what's the crawler
It is a Ros SAME Explorer in 1/16 scale, it is going to be joined soon by a Cat Challenger 95E and hopefully an MT765 (if the bid is successful)
You probably can get more shelves... do you know I hadn't even though about that
\
\
\
\ back to IKEA this afternoon then
:D

'Er indoors relented and it was off to IKEA for a new cabinet that they call a "Billy" bookcase, 6 shelves and glass doors not bad for ?90
The intention is to have one shelf for each major manufacturer but at the moment it is a bit haphazard
Top shelf Ford, Fiat and New Holland, then 2nd shelf John Deere
Next one is the SAME's and the fourth one at the moment is a mixture of red ones, MF, Case and McCormick
The bottom 2 shelves are a bit of a hotchpotch of odds and sods that either don't fit in with anything else or are a different scale
Eventually I plan to have them as
1 Ford Fiat New Holland
2 John Deere
3 SAME
4 Deutz and the 1/25 models
5 CaseIH and McCormick
6 AGCO
The I have to work on a second cabinet
;D
;D just don't tell the better half yet "softly softly catchee monkee"

I have never heard of it, where did you get it from?
Don't suppose there is a link to a homepage or anything like that is there?

I love the old Deutz 06 series tractors, used to drive a D80 06 during the summer of 76. I have been after a model of that model for ages but they are like hens teeth and cost as much as the real thing

I think I am right in saying that Watveare were German and taken over by Deutz in the 1970's. You just need to buy the field now to put it to work
:D
