Tractorman810 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Thats a lovely 165, bar the front wheels (we had different rims and wider front tyres) exactly like we had,again from new,first tractor i drove, was only ever used for yard dutys,hauling the muck trailer,and grain haulage on the legg 6 ton trailer when the other 690 was hedge trimming at the end of harvest, was so easy to drive despite no power steering and all the modern gizmos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The farm I found this on used to run several other 165s and a 65. The Case IH 844XL Plus is now the frontline tractor on the farm. Harvesting is carried out with a Claas Senator, and they also have several other well maintained implements that have been on the farm from new.

Fabulous example Justin. Whilst I will photograph anything and everything when it comes to machinery on my travels, it's certainly stumbling across the older classics that gives me the most satisaction. Here's two other 165 tractors I have photographed last year, and in 2012 that are still expected to put in some graft for their owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
