The 906 resembles a Dutra a bit. Probably no connection though  :-\

I just know that the engine is a 100 hp BUKH, the gearbox and rear end is from Hungarian DUTRA. it?s only made in 1 exp.She run for about 10 years then a rearaxle broke, and now she is completely rebuild. More later.

I have a LCN kit of a 1/32 BUKH similar to this I believe.I think it was the first special model tractor for the Dutch model tractor show, formerly at Dronten, now at Zwolle.

The danish toy factory VILMER made a model of the D-30 at that time with a removeable loader but the factory is closed down many years ago. ( in the 60?I think)

::) ::)::)  in 1904 Jens Bukh came home from the U.S.A., He had worked on different car factorys. He started to made a 1 cyl. petrolengine about 8 hp. In 1910 he made the first dieselengine without compressor in the world. these small engines were sold all over the world for farming, pumps and electicity. later on small engines for boats and yachts. After ww. 2 there come a need for tractors, and from 1952 - 1956 he made about 10 prototypes who was sold to farmers around in DK. They have to leave feedback. and in 1956 the first model DZ-30 is ready for the market. It was a 2 cyl. diesel abot 30 hp and hydraulic system like Ferguson. In 1957 came a bigger DZ-45 a 3 cyl. diesel about 45 hp. The capicity on the factory were not high, the first year was only maded 30 DZ-30 and 20 DZ-45. In 1958 a brand new factory was build and the D-30 and D45 came with new hydraulic system with weight transfeer and depht control and pto with two cluthes, one for driving and one for pto. In 1959 came a a new line 302 30 hp 2 cyl,403 40 hp. 3 cyl, 452 52 hp and 4 cyl, 554 61 hp and 4 cyl.

In 1960 Buhk was sold in Norge, Finland, Germany,Holland, Spain, Portugal. Africa, Brazil and Chile.

800 was exported this year. In Denmark was sold 15% of the market for dieseltractors about 1100

expl. Many big Farms change to BUKH at that time because it was easier to get them reparied and get spare parts. In 1965 there are build 2 6 cyl. tractor a 906 and a 956. They is only made one of each. At the same time there are made some DOE tractors.

In 1966 came the yellow line JUNO 3 cyl. and 52 hp, JUPITER 4 cyl. 75 hp, HERCULES 6 cyl. 93 hp. There was made 500 JUNO. 560 JUPITER and 45 HERCULES. The production stopped in 1968, and the small engine and generatorproduction was sold to CALLESEN DIESEL. There was made some special tractors to the Royal Danish Airforce. That was a 452 with a big snowblower, The blower was driven by a 6 cyl. FORDSON. The Danish digger factory HYDREMA use also BUKH to the diggers.

This was the short story of BUHK. If you like I can find the story about other danish implements

fexl. TIM, THYREGOD, JF, TAARUP and others.

I took pictures of the HYDREMA articulated loader/backhoe back in the 90s at the Royal Show as I was very impressed with the engineering and have brochures on them,I think they may have had Perkins engines fitted for the UK market. This was long before JCB came out with the 4CX.-OK....I know that's not articulated  :)

After BUKH closed down HYDREMA used BM-VOLVO
