robbo Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 I am putting this in General Buys even though it is connected to my tractor brand obsession, I just need a workshop to put it up on the wall now because if I hang it in my office it obscures all of the model cabinets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 That's a cracking book, a lot of the pictures are of tractors at work rather than brochure pics, will keep you busy for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hajo Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Yep, a great book indeed, I have got it here for a few years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justy 46 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 It is a good book. All the pics are off tractors in every day use. Only thing I found is that it don't cover the different versions off Ford's such as the Duncan and Fritzemeir cabbed Fords that were very popular outside the UK. But still a great read.

844john Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 That's very nice Alastair, she looks good and straight. What's the plan for her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valley Axe Man Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Tidy tractor there Alastair, nice buy i dont know how anyone else thinks but i somehow think that the SG2 cab was the mark of a proper classic Deere, they somehow went astray when they moved on from that cab, maybe its just me but the 40 and 50 series Deeres were the best looking, the long bonnet giving a powerful look from the word go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
844john Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I know what you mean about the look of the SG2 Paul, but for me the later Techcentre cabs win every time.....for a start it has a door on either side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

844john Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Same here Paul, but as you get older you don't want to have to keep walking around the bonnet to get to the other side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks John, no idea kind of came out of the blue, I’d come close to picking up an old 3650 recently, but o think that’s gone quiet now. That sowed the seed, and then this one came up purely by accident in conversation with one of our customers, and being just down the road, it was convenient. The price was fair and I don’t think you can really go wrong. Has had recent clutch and tyres haven’t even worn writing off tread few jobs to do, needs putting back to narrow settings, it’s in sugar beet mode at the moment. I ant to clean up and put back to black the sides of the cab behind the rear wheels. Rear wings could do with a fettle, cab roof paint or replace, headlining a bit tatty but it can stay like that for a bit. Overall a good clean up. 2 hours ago, Valley Axe Man said: Tidy tractor there Alastair, nice buy i dont know how anyone else thinks but i somehow think that the SG2 cab was the mark of a proper classic Deere, they somehow went astray when they moved on from that cab, maybe its just me but the 40 and 50 series Deeres were the best looking, the long bonnet giving a powerful look from the word go i agree, absolutely love the style, but when I grew up they were all around me at home, so it’s a nostalgia thing. I then used to spend most of my holidays driving a 4wd 3050 hauling 12 and 14 tonne trailers of spuds! It had been opened up a bit I believe, but even so imagining proposing 100hp for that job now! I too love the cab and style, but can’t help ever wondering how it got off the drawing board, it’s just weird really. Hand on heart, whilst I love it, it’s kind of ridiculous!

844john Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 she'll look very tidy once she's done Alastair, and with those hours that engine's just run in! You're right about the size of tractor mind, in another thread it's been talked about what to put on the front of a seven furrow plough, a farm near to us did all their ploughing with two seven furrow kvernlands and they were pulled by a pair of new TW20's. Mind you, I do often spread fert with a 300hp New Holland which I'm sure could certainly be classed as over kill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
