bob123 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Was wondering what everyones favourite model tractor is that they currently own?it can be any make,model,age,condition,size,scratchbuild etc.My own favourite is this rare Britains Fordson Yellow Industrial tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMB Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Very nice example (certainly in better condition than mine), but change that driver! My favourite oldie is a Britains 5000 transition model, with front mounted oval exhaust and 6600 decal. So many I like though, especially my new two-faced IH 956/1056xl Transition model!

Claaspower Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I don't really collect much of the older stuff so I have to make a choice between the Claas Axion 950 and the Fendt 828 but I think the 828 just shades it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Can't decide between the DBP County 1174 and the DBP County 1184 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.watson Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 i have given this a lot of thought, and i just cant make my mind up. my ertl precision john deere 8400 would probably just shade it.i have a lot of schuco, weise and wiking which are all equally as pleasing. my marge 2wd 7610 is right up there too.

robbo Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 My favourite would have to be the Artisan 32 Same Buffalo that JDC built for me from a kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 mm hard one this ,will have to narrow it down from arround 25 ,if the topic was favorite model in the collection it would be very easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Good question indeed .....and after a long and hard think it has to be one of the tractor models I have owned in my collection for around 43 years. Its my childhood Ford 5000 complete with box and wheel rot which my father bought me from Harrod's in London circa 1969 when he was down at the London Building Exhibition. It has done a lot of 1/32 farming and is still on the same clutch and rear tyres from new ;D ...a new air cleaner. exhaust and draw - bar pin was kindly donated to me by G&M Farm models a few years ago including two rear wheel centers...but after 43 years I suspect the tubes will be stuck to the rims with rust so best to leave as is me thinks ;D A cab was later added and was bought from the toy shop in Ballater in Aberdeenshire (Scotland the What fans will see the funny side to that shop and reference to the present of a cuddly futret made by a wifie in Hong Kong for young Prince William) and also a driver who suffered a leg amputation and I can't remember why that happened. In addition I must have had a earlier Fordson bit only the draw - bar / implement hitch piece has survived and was repainted black and used as a transport box. Here is what I was referring to above about "the cuddly futret".....just ask any Scottish FTF members if ye dinna ken fit it means ;D http://thecathedralchoir.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/futrets.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdeere6910 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Hmm well for me I think it had to be the Siku farmer JD 6920 that gained a 6920S bonnet and some doors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justy 46 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) My own Ford 4600 conversion is my favourit. After that in terms of off the shelf buys.

ertlerik Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I have several favorites, but when you twist my arm at this time it is my 1/16 6710 with Rumpstad plow The Ford is a custom build in the US by Rob Lynch (iowaskyesequipment) and the plow is done by Andy (classiccombines) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMurF Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I've been pondering about an answer for this topic for a few days and come to the conclusion of how long is a piece of string. As for the life of me there is no one model that I think more of than any other. I could say that all are my favourite. On the other hand If the subject was what is your favourite farm model that would be easy Because it would be my Laverda as I made it and no one else has the same one.

Tractorman810 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 i agree scott, models, well i have 3 at least all equal, plus a few other that come close, do have 1 fav bought model to, but its not a tractor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catkom3 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Had to think a bit about this one,but I reckon it's got to be between these two, My Manu's International 1455XL, Or,my scratch built 8000 Series Tracked Massey, But I still think the best mass produced tractor model is,the big Schluter Probably because the guy that commissioned it,own's the real deal.
