RichardJW1 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 So for any County 1184 fans out there I thought you may like to see these pics that have been harbouring on the hard-drive for a while.......They were all taken back in '90/'91 up around Tedburn St. Mary during my time working for Jewells (Ford New Holland dealers) So to start with we have this long wheel base model that belonged to the NRA and had a Bomford blade and Turner VERY long reach trimmer on the back Then there was this one ex-NRA w/ blade & winch that was traded in - I have a feeling this one came up in Beeton's auction recently, the lights being where they are and one side of the bonnet had 1164, the other side 1184. Will have a look, see if I can find a shot of it And this pair belonged to a contractor up near Cheriton Bishop.....a fine set, I'm sure you'll agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pudding Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 hey nice pics hows the yellow trailers attached to the tractors?.......were they devoted to pulling trailers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJW1 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 Hey up Pudding, how's it hangin'? I got a feeling they were cut down goose neck trailers, there was in fact 3 1184s in that yard, one LWB and two SWBs all with those trailers but for the life of me I can't find the pic. The owner was a contractor that also did silaging (forager hooked up to the LWB) while the others pulled the trailers - you can just see the corner of one red silage trailer in one of these pics.
