That 4wd 444 is a copy of the one Roadless put together. It was built by a chap called Graham Ellicot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 The other thing that always strikes me about Internationals is how few of the World Wide Series are still around. There are loads of 856, 956 and the larger ones but very few 574/674 still left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are loads of 856, 956 and the larger ones but very few 574/674 still left I used to use a 674 for livestock duties and loader work and its never missed a day tho you had to remember the hand braked was goosed, it was replaced by a784 which had a steering box like a box of marbles - all over the place, my brother had a 674 to use at his work place and it was a total pig , poor starter n leaked more oil than a sieve, I think it were perhaps a Monday morning built machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 To be honest David, the handbrake was crap from day one, finding a 74 series with a working handbrake is a rare occurrence. Our 475 still works (just) but you wouldn't trust it to hold anything more than the tractor itself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEP Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Very nice photos again David. I do like the old Jcb construction gear. Used to love the look of the the 80- series of 360 excavators. Have a 1:32 scale plastic kit of a Jcb 808, must get round to building it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 Thanks ever so much John. Likewise still enjoy seeing the older 800 series JCB excavators. My Dad operated a good few over the years along with the later Sumitomo based machines. Will look forward to seeing your 808 when you get around to building it.
