civilpek Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 heres a pic of our ford 7810 and the wraper, a lovely tractor i think but unfortuntaly shes virtually retired now and her sole job is wrapping bales which is unfortunate as shes in perfect condition, just no longer powerful enough for the new gear my boss is using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Nice picture there. Great tractors in there day, still several working in this area. I used to love driving the one where i used to work. I don't know if your one is the same, but ours and several about here were all pigs to start from cold, especially if it was frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilpek Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 the starter had gone in that one when i had her so i had to start her from the outside with the wires but that was in the summer as regards starting her in the winter i honestly cant say because as i said shes solely used for wrapping now and is just parked in a sheed with the wrapper still attached at the moment and wont be coming out till may some time, but they were and still are a lovely tractor and used be all around here too a few years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 What a nice picture, those Fords were always a lovely tractor, couldn't go wrong. Tell your boss to get an 8 Ton silage trailer, it'll haul that lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'd put at least 12 ton on her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Got a picture you might like, Crap quality, old Camera I had 2million pixel crap. But Hauling a 10 tonner here no problems, maybe I was harsh on the old girl ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 That looks more like a 7610 to me \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 That looks more like a 7610 to me? \ That's because it is, I wa indicating the fact that the smaller 7000 series Fords can haul big trailers, so my 8 tonner suggestion was way of line :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 That looks more like a 7610 to me \ Thanks IM885, the jury is out until tomorrow on wether or not he should get a Numpty for that........ Should he or shouldn't he?? :D :D :D :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
