nashmach Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 I won this lovely brochure a few weeks ago on ebay and got it last week - lets just say I am well impressed - some nice period shots in it and I never knew Cabcraft made the MF 1200 cab Quote
Lord Ferguson Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Oooo you lucky beggar... that looks a beauty Colm... I rememeber the 525/625 combine cabs well... like a sweat box :D I've got some pics of the 1200 tractor line at Barton Dock Road, Manchester somewhere with cabcract cabs being installed - I'll see if I can dig them out Nice find Colm... do you mind if I ask ROUGHLY how much it was buddy Quote
nashmach Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 I was dead chuffed with it - and I wonder how many of those Allis Chamlbers combinew were sold Believe it or not Mark - I have seen upwards of 20 525/625's in my time and only onw with this cab It hit the pocket to the tune of 4.99 plus postgae I think was ?2 so was dead pleased ;D Quote

nashmach Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 THnaks lads - beats some of the dear Ford stuff on ebay at the moment and adds a bit of flavour to my collection What a cover for a brochure too Quote
Lord Ferguson Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 It's a peach Colm... I am sure I remember seeing that brochure on the "rack" at the dealers in about 1983ish \ Quote
nashmach Posted January 29, 2008 Author Posted January 29, 2008 It is indeed - that poor combine looks rough Last reg's in it are L and M's - doubt its 1983 myself Mark - as it doesn't mention NH S series machines Quote
NewHolland2 Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Very nice brochure mate...... We have an old Cabcraft cab for the 525 but have never fitted it so it's still sitting in the corner of the yard...... Quote
IH885XLMAN Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Did they do the cabs on the IH 614s-634s 414s-434s like this ;) Quote
jdc Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 I drove a Clayson with one on for a harvest when it was newish - I don't think my ears ever recovered It'll be an interesting brochure though. Quote
james f Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Did they do the cabs on the IH 614s-634s 414s-434s like this ;) That's right Quote
nashmach Posted January 30, 2008 Author Posted January 30, 2008 Did they do the cabs on the IH 614s-634s 414s-434s like this ;) Yep one of those on a 275 is in it as well as a Same Saturno, JQ 4020 and Leyland 154 Quote
IH885XLMAN Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 might make one in the far future for a 614 or 634 as ive see these cabs on both and both used to be the topper tractor where i worked as a kid bloody scary as well the roar of one was nice but loud (like a session eric clapton's "layla" cranked up to max ;D ) Quote
nashmach Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 Well lads what year was L and M reg during the 70's ??? Quote
