Deere-est Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Just pop back and pick up that 3650 for me would you? What gleamer Good selection again, what dealer was the John Deere stop and where were the TX68's in they old nissen style stores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 As Tris said, lovely looking 3650 there Marcus, somebody is certainly looking after that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Very nice selection of machines there Marcus. I'll echo the previous comments on the 3650, gorgeous looking tractor. Ford 7810 spraying oufit looks mighty fine too, reminds me of a tidy Gem based setup around the same type of tractor that used to operate just down the road from me, the farmer has since replaced it with a New Holland TM130 and trailed Gem.

What gleamer Good selection again, what dealer was the John Deere stop and where were the TX68's in they old nissen style stores? the 3650, 7810 spray unit, TX's & the Track Marshall 70 all come from the same farm , around the havant /chichester area also got a this chap waiting for harvest also has a 4600 & 5000, TM165 & a C-IH 956 but couldnt get near them As Tris said, lovely looking 3650 there Marcus, somebody is certainly looking after that one. they were all pretty well looked after mark , i think there's only a few workers & they treat all the tractors the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light Land Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 There getting cheaper the world over mate,you don`t see new trailed sprayers around my parts very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 starting to see more & more self propelled sprayers about now , usually a contractors machine rather than a farm owned one Thats interesting to note, there's a number of contractors around here now using bigger self propelled machines too and most of the big potato growers near where I work run big Househam machines. Although there's still quite an eclectic mix of other combinations near where I live from Fastrac demounts, smaller self propelled Frazier Agribuggies, John Deere 7530 and trailed Knight to a Ford 6600 on a Ransomes mounted/front tank sprayer. Plenty of variation to look out for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 nice collection definatly nice ford spray rig and would like to see those two tx's side by side pacing through a field yes i thought the 78 was in good nick too, not much rust around the windows where they usually start deteriorating unfortunately , the chaps feed usually comes from dorchester mill every month , so i can't see me getting back there any time soon to see the harvesters working Nice collection of pictures there Marcus - most mint too which is good to see yes got to admit colm, they were all pretty well up together & i too like mints \ some nice machinery in there shame about the 290 doesnt look all that bad that digger is a mf 50hxs must be post 1990 any way because the doors are one piece of glass still plenty of life in those front tyres yet weve had worse on ours the lad in the tyre centre asked us did we want a new tyre we said we wanteded it mended saidly he was polish and didnt get the joke ohh the farmer said the 290 was the best tractor he's owned , used to be the farms main tractor also had an 85 loader in the yard for it ,& thats why he has in now on the slurry pump, it's not man enough to handle the bigger kit he now has , but he also doesn't want to sell it , thus a good retirement on the pump, still a shame to see it sat there . not up on the diggers mate , knew it was a 50 something or another Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
