Based on a 5000 but has a shuttle box, foot pedal opperated forward/reverse. Done for loader work. James. What would my un-restored Douglas Tug, based on a late 990 be worth then? Believed to have spent most of its life on an aircraft carrier, yellow, no cab, remnants of 'high visability' lighting on it, normal type gearbox not the fluid torque type.

David Brown 1410 power! Posted February 10, 2008 Author Share Posted February 10, 2008 Nigel our county power drives 11F is based on the ford 5000 and has a brockhouse torque transmisson with all the normal gears! there's no clutch pedal just a leaver for forward and reverse and when you select a gear and put it in either forward/reverse it will not move unless trotel is given the more you give the faster you go! the same with when you reduce revs it will eventual just stop! The county power drives were built especialy for loader work as when we got our's it had never been fitted with a draw bar. county power drives was a sepparet sector at county only for building county power drive machines. There's only suppose to be 22 of these built on the ford 5000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that rusty, the paint has sort of round patches of rust like where it has bubbled as if in contact with salt water and the rust patches are a bit pitted but overall, the condition is pretty good. Douglas stopped using David Brown skid units in 1974. Exeter airport had a fleet of cabbed ones back in the 1970's, all yellow and shiny, 995 and 1210 based. Freind of mine that works there and is in to tractors had the last one they had there, brought back to Exeter from Jersey as it was painted white with 'Jersey European' decaling on the cab doors. The airport got rid because some numpty tried to ******-pull an aircraft with it and smashed up the diff, all put right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
