ihatepoundland Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 Tell more (i'm fascinated by Muir Hills and most early 4WD convertions), how'd it compare to other tractors etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archbarch Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Tell more (i'm fascinated by Muir Hills and most early 4WD convertions), how'd it compare to other tractors etc? i drove a 121 wide cabbed version on an estate where i worked not a bad tractor lovely cab felt like riding a camel on the road. when i did a spell with a drainage contractor he had 4 on stone carts 121s and a 101 on a shawnee poole dumper. they were a dream to drive a real go anywhere tractor better turning circle than a county or roadless due to the 4wd arrangement. 1 of the 121s had a perkins engine all the others were ford i dont know whether this was a Muir Hill option ? Myth Holm started production again in the late 80s but i dont know how many were sold im sure i have a brochure for it but i cant find it at the mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
