Fenside MF Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I got home yesterday after work to find (I think) southover contractors muck spreading 3 fields down the bottom of our garden ready for ploughing and planting maize. I think the kit was Jd 6930 with bunning spreader jd 6910 with I think bunning spreader JCB TM *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenside MF Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 These photos are the best of a bad bunch but a message to the massey masssive is that the farmer gets in another contractor that runs a fleet of masseys to plough and seed the maize Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

britainswomble Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Southover Contractors used to have bright orange signs on the front of their cab roof with the name on it. They were affectionately known as the Mc Clusky's. The real name of the two brothers is Rick and Chris Moderski. Just to confuse things, there was a company called Sussex Contractors who specialized in muck spreading. That was run and owned by the Thomas brothers. They ran JD's in spite of the fact that they were previously Sussex Tractors (Ford) employees. Jus' fort I'd mention that....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenside MF Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 Where abouts in East sussex great pics Marshman, near Crowhurst and Catsfield which are small villages between Bexhill and Battle Southover Contractors used to have bright orange signs on the front of their cab roof with the name on it. They were affectionately known as the Mc Clusky's. The real name of the two brothers is Rick and Chris Moderski.

Southover contractors usually harvest the maize as I have seen the roof plates on the deeres but I am sure this was the same jcb tm from last year and there 6930 didn't have a name plate last september Jamie, ever heard of P J Batchelor Contractors? No Jez I haven't but are they down my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenside MF Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 The farmer usually gets in B.G Hagues which runs a lovely fleet of Masseys to start ploughing,cultivating and drilling. And look at this beast that turned up this afternoon. A Mf 8220 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 That other JD looks like a 6800/6900 as it has the 6000 decals. Nice pictures though, and the 8220 looks like the one my mates Uncle had on an identical plough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
