jdc Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 ...and a few of his others. He also has a 35 and a grey/red(!) Fergie but these were in the back of the shed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graham Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 very nice john did they earn there keep on the farm john or has he bought them for his own collection, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Some nice pictures there John. I'm going to have to be my usual critical self and say I don't particulary like the MF65 with those odd looking oversized wheels though ;D I like originality but at the end of the day the tractor owner can do what he wants. Was there a specific reason for the larger front wheels and the front weights too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 The 35, 65, 185 and Fergie all worked and still do on the farm. He bought most of the others locally.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let him off with that given it still earns it keep and isn't just a show piece for going to rallies ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdc Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 That 1200 looks superb, your mate must have spent a lot of time and effort to get it to that condition. does he use that 1200 mate, or is it for shows, as shes in gret condidtion He bought the 1200 in 2001 and it rolled out in 2007! Engine was good but he did full o'haul of drop box, gearbox and hydraulics. Cab completely relined and is like new. (Smells like it to!) Smallest plough he has is 4f KV variwidth and it toils (with assister ram) to lift it, so it does odd jobs and shows - bit of a crowd puller in amongst the 35 and 3000s.

jdc Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 I haven't been in his shed for a while! he's building a new house so has been quiet on the tractors. I think that was the backend of a 35 but not sure, Marcus 'on the ball' Barret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
