MJB1 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 again, another 2wd not seen very often , even more surprising is that it's used for lime spreading ! contractors usually favor 4wd for this type of work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPN Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I haven't seen that "handbrake" technique for a very long time! Used to be a favourite of mine ;D How long before someone (Sean?) butchers a Siku 5455 (rear wheels), JQ4020 (front wheels), Tim 4260(chassis) and Ros 3070/ERTL 3050 (bonnet & cab) to make a replica of that?

ihatepoundland Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Great spot, don't know why but I like the look of the larger ford/massey 2wds of the 80s/90s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 again, another 2wd not seen very often , even more surprising is that it's used for lime spreading ! contractors usually favor 4wd for this type of work As Marcus once quoted "If It Can't Be Done With A 2WD It Shouldn't Be Done At All" I think it was marcus and words near to that effect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 He looks after this one well and has a collection of new and old MF badges on the front grill, he also runs 2 or 3? ERF 6 wheelers with trailers to collect lime and to take to the farm for an on-site supply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Don't see many 2wds about. The 3000s are still one of the nicest tractors around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
