What's your latest farm/Construction buy in 2023


Recommended Posts

I bought this off Amazon a few days ago - toss up between it and the 8R 410 wheeled version, I don’t know if it’s just an optical illusion but the front axle on the 8R seems too far back?

this I think is one of Britains best releases, it’s a shame they don’t release a few more bigger implements to match though.

They look very similar to the claas markant balers replicagri have done, could be a conversion.

I think they are all based on the Claas Markant baler , Neils had a few different balers last year when i was at Zwolle all in the Perspex display case , few other people around halls had same balers but in the Claas Markant boxes and was about 10 euros cheaper than Neils , yes Neils one would display better in the case , i bought a red New Holland 575 as i run one on the farm , i bought that of a Italian dealer that was only there on the Saturday

Just the cab and fenders Paul.

The 7S Bonnet is very good, chassis as well, tyres & rims are exactly right 650/65/R42s...........600/65/R30 

Already sprayed wheels Sapphire grey.  Exhaust , manifold box, steps ,adblue tank, front linkage etc  all good.

Most Massey fans will be more than happy with it, its only us conversionists who seek greater accuracy and try to rebuild things better.

I Have been lucky enough to stumble on some less common bits this last while.

White transit van in ok condition its got a couple chips and the box is bashed but it was an OK price.  Green valtra in nice condition however the steering wheel is broken for some reason  (don't think the tractor has been apart so not sure how that happened) also picked up these older implements as I wanted the bale elevator. one of the more lucky and rare finds was this joblot of bits with the most important windows for my britains cardboard farm house. If anyone has the door or another window give me a message please.

I also managed to get this joblot of parts from Facebook. It's got some good bits in it that will be handy down the line. I thought it was odd to see the loading shovel cabs so had to have it .   If anyone spy's anything the need to sort a model please give me a message and we could organise a swap
