NewHolland2 Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 After the 3095 and 6475 this is the highest horse-power tractor on the farm.....Sadly it hasn't been used for a while but we hope to get her running again this winter and operate the feeder with her..... Just thought I'd post some pictures of it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewHolland2 Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 nice mart, the rears look a little small tyre wise dont they?? seem to remember ours being bigger, mind you she was a 698t cabs in great condition to, no rust on the bottom of the doors, very unusal that I think they rears are actually smaller on this particular one Sean..... The worst bit for rust on this one is the rear wings which are pretty bad but other than that she isn't bad.....The seat is pretty poor as well but she does look good I think..... Lovely machine Mart... thanks for posting... she looks to be in fair nick from the outside mate \ I thought I'd drop this in for the Massey Massive tonight..... I don't think it'll take much to get her going again.....She just hasn't been used for a while.....Was parked up a year or two back and we'd had no reason to use her and when we had to move her she wouldn't go even with a jump.....So I'll keep you all updated.....

NewHolland2 Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 With a bit of TLC I'm sure she'll still be capable of a days work.....We only plan to use her on the feeder and also possibly on the link box for running between the two farms with bits and bobs..... Just a case of finding time to have a look at her..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 looks a tidy tractor mart ,looking at the wheels though i'd say it was used for row crop work ,spuds ? but the fronts look to be on a narrower track width than the rears never took to the 698 ,used a 2wd for a few years , but it'd seen better days , the 698T was a joy to drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 So whats wrong with it? Just needs a bit of mechanical TLC? A 'hobby' farmer down the road has one and trims his hedges with it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
