NCC Posted July 7, 2005 Posted July 7, 2005 Me thinks a Case 956, 1056, 1256 or 1456 could be made from that Dave, extend the bonnet and chassis a tad and you have basically done a 1456XL. Looks pretty good even with no makeup on, I like it. Quote

Looks pretty good even with no makeup on, I like it. Heres the old girl I drive,This 1255XL tractor has the large sharke like fins on top of the hood to cool the turbo down. Quote
the other green Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 That's a good lookin' tractor Fendt Power. Nice long wheelbase, I'll bet she's a smooth ride, just like the old 6 cylinder DX Deutz tractors are. Quote
IH885XLMAN Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 thats one neet international fent power one question ?in the photo the round bailer looks like a vicon (like the one i used to bale with)but it looks like one of the mid belts are missing ..would i be right?? ps anyone got any ertl 956 xl? Quote
NewHolland2 Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 That is one fine looking International. I'm sure she's a pleasure to drive. Cheers NewHolland2 Quote
Guest Fendt pwr Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 G guys I did'nt know you liked that tractor that much!. \ The baler is a "greenland" baler and yes it dose have a belt out of it.I took that picture while I was waiting for my boss to come out to me with a new belt,the one in it was old and just in the blink of an eye snaped on me. I'm not sure how old the tractor is,but it dose get well looked afther.It not long ago had a new coat of paint.Having said that my boss makes the thing grown and labour very hard some times. The tractor puts out around 130hp at the PTO.In summer It tow's the round baler and spring and fall it works with a 7 furrow plough (12inch furrow's) and a 3 m drill. This is the second tractor like that this guy has had,he likes the old school tractors he has also had many IH 986,ford 7000,6600,4000 tractors.(Or it's because he's paying so much child support to his ex wife that he can't buy a new one.)

IH885XLMAN Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 hay FP i stopped working on the farm that had the vicon round bailer years ago but i hear the bailer is still going with its origional belts (i can imagine it bailing silage snnnnap snappp "f#~k those ropey belts )diddnt help aswel the latches on the back door chamber where worn so it would creep open half-way through producing the bale and weeken the bale belts Quote

IH885XLMAN Posted July 14, 2005 Posted July 14, 2005 the bailer was fine on straw & hay but silage, it dint mater what you did to the pressure u could guarantee down time somewhere Quote
