NewHolland2 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 This one looks like another bargain, and it comes with a 7610 engine...... ;) http://www.gmstephenson.co.uk/showpic.php?id=503&pic=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 difficult to say without seeing it in the flesh, but looks ok from the pics, nothing super mart couldn't sort out body work/paint wise,theres one in the back of septs ct mag to mate, from down near luke but shes mint looking so prob high in price at a guess, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i'd keep saving to get a 76 4wd at least mart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udimore Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Need to ask a few questions Mart about the hours under the belt and stuff Pricewise is perhaps a tad too high but I'm sure that is flexible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Doesn't look too bad but for the price its a bit dear looks like its done quite a bit with the amount of rust on the grab handles which might mean it was laid up for a while No loader though Mart so its not 100% ideal - always better to get it with a loader than spending time looking for a suitable loader for it as they are difficult to find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Yeah, I agree with Nash...... I think you could find a better condition tractor for the same money or less Martin, when you do be sure to put a deposit on it then you won't lose it again!

MJB1 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i think yer a bit silly looking at that when this is the same price & a lot more useable & at least this will get you work , better than a 2wd of any model at 80 hp http://www.gmstephenson.co.uk/prodimages/large/MAX+MF3630+JD%206110%20015.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Martin... I miss-read the title... I thought it said Onions please... - I've posted them now as well Seriously though... Does look a tad over-priced to me mate in all honesty... what you need is a "one lady vicar owner" tractor with low hours that has been stored inside a church all it's life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light Land Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 are you selling your other one mart to bye a bigger tractor or is this going to be number 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Cheers for the opinions folks......I was put off slightly by the rust on the rails...... \ Just as a rough indication how much would you expect to pay for this one? Not too keen on the Massey, never really liked the style of those but does look like a good work-horse for the dosh...... Oli - The Fergie is being sold to raise the extra wee bit of cash to be able to get over the ?4000 mark......See the fully painted Fergie in my Restoration topic......

Pingu Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 If i was in your position mart looking for a workhorse etc go for something thats value for money dont be picky with makes etc, the mf has got a simple gearbox that has little problems with them. Perfect for what your gonna use 2wd just isnt worth it any more as it may have 95hp motor in it, but it will only pull like 75hp with 2wd etc things like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 got to agree with phill on that one mart , we know that it's a blue you want , but run something reliable & affordable for the first year or so , as long as it earns the money you'll be quids in when it 's time for replaceing , & maybe a newer blue than you thought 7840 / 8340 perhaps ? still recon that fergie would do you well , most of the 3000 /36 range have stood the test of time pretty well as has the CASE-IH 956 & they sound real beauts when working hard !

NewHolland2 Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 Thanks lads, yeah the 2wd would probably be a waste of time in terms of traction for around here...... \ I would still hope that I could source a similar Ford machine for around the same money as the Massey however it may well be I have to bury my head in shame at driving a red in the future...... Oli - I plan to use it on the farm where I help out/work in the holidays as the boss said another tractor would be great to have around at mucking out and other busy times and also just general work around the area if anyone needs another tractor to help with grain carting for example...... ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 weird that phil, ihman i was just going to say to mart what about a case ih , theres loads kicking round in ct adds this month all at pretty reasonable prices, as there are massys to, might be worth considering a different brand mart, as the fords you seem to want all seem to be high in price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't just rely on that one farmer, take a good look around locally and if you have one approach the local machinery ring to see what the chances of getting work through them could be, don't forget insurances either, as many people will tell you on here they are not cheap at all \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
