MJB1 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I have to say this but proberly a MF in the 61 series i think ( cant rember the number) 6180 /40 not a bad tractor really but the same with the 3680 the move to put the linkage lever in through the casting wasnt a great sucssess in my view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford/nh fan Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 the ford 6600 for me spent loads of hours carpet farming with those models followed by the MF 595 DAZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allis8550 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Mf 595 and 6290 have to be my favourites if only for their conversion potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the other green Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 MF 135, no question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 It looks o me like the mf135 is the winner. They are realy popular toy or real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow legs Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 the one i always have a soft spot for is the fiat 880 2wd, as a carpet farmer years ago and even now its a great alrounder and good loader tractor i must say they have got it about right with the jd 7930, only thing is the weights arnt quite right (ive solved that on mine) could a moderator set up a poll listing all the tractors so we can vote as not all of them spring to mind as there were lots of different ones over the years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-classic-collector Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 just like the rest, mine is the mf 135, i have two and there great little tractors, too small perhaps? and they are quite pricey! most of the small fords and mfs are nice, and you here of many carpet farmers using them and boasting..... however i have a soft side for the renault 155.54 because i have farmed and farmed with mine!
