mf135 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 After posting model pic's this week i thought i would show some of the real stuff out of the shed the first is the Case IH 1056xl with TB turbo which has been on the farm from new with still less then 2,000 hours! on the clock still does a few hours a year clearing snow etc. The second is my 1968 Western Massey Ferguson 1130 which is still in her working clothes with a little over 8,000 hours on the clock. I have always had a soft spot for 1000 series MF tractors. But before my time we had a MF1100 on the farm from new which i would love to still find. Will post more when i find more pic's thanks for looking Martyn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 so what else is hidden away in them sheds then martyn certainly like the look of the mf, doubt theres many of them made it over to the uk, and the case, well, thats prob in good enough condition to go into the case ih museam,what was she used for initally when you first bought her, as the hours are pretty low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mf135 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hi Sean, when i get time i'll share some more of the shed's gems mostly IH,MF,Fordson, with a Steiger,Cat, Nuffield and one green and yellow one thrown in for good measure! o and me DB 950 got soft spot again for these red DB's but i'll tell more about them another day. As for the Case IH 1056xl low hours we had a tractor for every job so the hours were split between other CaseIH, Renault, and JCB Fastrac. Theres not to many western MF1130's here and as the dollars still strong not that many coming over just love the raw engine note of the turbo perkins 6.354 when first got it had straight threw pipe and it would scare small children and animals love it! Hope this answer the questions. Thanks again Martyn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
