smish Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 ah the moffet tractors, made in co louth in the mid 90's. the one shown here was the one based on the massey 390T i think with the 12x12 shuttle box. later came the ford 7840 based one,wil try dig out some pics. very handy machine, i guy near me has the 7840 model one, has fairly high hours on her too, he had the contracto for the local glanbia delivering all the fertiliser to the farmers.
