FendtFarmer Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 oh and the doe, dont know if you noticed, the rear unit was a 6 cycinder and the front was a 4 cylinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) The Doe tractor in question isn't a genuine one. More a contemporary "improved" version of the Doe 130 christened the Natco 130+ from John Hayward and his team who have created a number of Ford / Fordson based specials in recent years. The front skid unit is an industrial example sourced from an old Whitlock digger whilst the rear unit is a genuine agricultural specification Ford 5000. The front half of the tractor is powered by a 401 4 cylinder turbo charged engine whilst the rear half is powered by a turbo charged Ford BSD 666TI motor that alone delivers 190hp. Thanks for sharing your photographs Tommy. Some very interesting equipment on show. Edited January 20, 2012 by walterderwent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few people from college were having a debate about it on the way home and it never got settled properly so I think that information will come in handy. Thanks.

Tommy Gough Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 Lovely pictures.. I wish I'd gone now... None of the MF stand though ? No, sorry Mark. That was one of the last stands we got to and by then we were running out of time so didnt have much of a chance to get any pictures. The crowd around the new 7600 range was also pretty big so it would have been hard to get some pictures from all angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udimore Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I was so impressed with the show, all of the sellers were really positive about how the industry is really growing .

Massive great show industry will only grow, well in arable sector anyway, if wheat stays above £150 a ton. we just had a quote of £78k for jd 6170r tractor. for a 550 acre farm, thats a lot of money to find. chris.

How much for a New Holland? Aside from the obvious benefits of switching to blue, you would also be contributing to the incomes of your neighbours in Basildon, and the local businesses where they spend their money. How and where we spend our money is going to be critical if we are to ride out the recession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
