Deere-est Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 As always, some interesting machines around the place. UH have obviously got it all wrong with the new 240 and Mark has bought a ringer looking at this one!! :laugh: A Yanky MF285 Missouri maybe? A John Chafer And the real deal of the Britains set up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 The thing looks like a tank, Mark it has to be said. Shame it's so rough. I'd like to know how it came to end up here though. Mark, been scanning the classifieds for a hobby toy have we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I think that Ford and Shawnee Poole dumper has been in Sutton for quite some time - certainly last October 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 The cab is in the trailer, Colm if it is the same one? I don't remember seeing it before but it may have been elsewhere in the lots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 There was one a bit like it at the Case IH dealership in town here this spring. Although the one you saw, Erik seems to stand up straight. The one at Cheffins looks a little bit droopy! Thanks for looking Erik and Bas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'm surprised you didn't snag that TM as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBfan Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Are they going for scrap or export sir If you want the run there is 2 of them and a smaller one you could take as I a sick of fixing the evrey summer Some good pics there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Export for that lot, maybe the middle one will stick around and do a season on the farm as it is quite a nice baler with string/net, wide pick-up and chopper. The TM was a tempting steal, John. Especially with that nice loader on it. Another trip saw me head down to the Totnes/Dartmouth area to pick up a lovely MF168 with a lovely Flexi Cab a la MJB1's dreams!! On the same farm from new for all of its 34yrs, stable mates at the farm are a 135, 165, 390T, 4360 and a 520 combine. I couldn't get the lorry to the farm, I wish I could have though. I bet it's a hive of working classics.... Maybe I will be there again, the 390T may be going for a 5455..... I also had to pick up a JCB 3CX from Seaton up Exeter way on the way home which mean hoisting the front end of the Massey up in the air, opening up the 4 in 1 bucket of the JCB and sliding it in underneath the Massey. With the narrow cab of he Massey, she sat between the JCBs pallet tine brackets a treat Unloading back at the yard. The stockyard at dusk: And another little load from Surrey, 188 with a loader and weight block and a 9ft Votex topper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 blimey that 168 has a good condition flexi cab on it, one for marcus that i recon, dont see that many now with what seems to be a complete origonal one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 I'm going to keep an eye on this one for him but you never know, this one may get sold as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 would make a nice resto for a enthusiast thats for sure, shame it isnt a 165, otherwise i may have been intrested, even if i cant quiet afford it right now, a good origonal like that is hard to turn down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
