That’s what I thought, I’m assuming it was an option to the standard switch panel can’t say I’ve seen another one on a tractor although pictures are hard to come by.

Can anyone shed some light on this switch panel and blower fitted in the cab I can’t find much info about it other than in the book it’s referred to as a temperature filtration unit. Sorry the picture isn’t great

I know that guy I bought a topper from him in the summer! I keep saying I’m going to go to the auction but with everything going on the last couple of years haven’t got round to it. I always check the catalogues though just in case something interesting comes up.

I think it is, it’s got a few more scapes and dings but defiantly the tractor. The auction is not far from me and there can’t be many in the highlands. Feel pretty good about what I paid for it now knowing what the classic tractor market is like. How did you find out it was sold there?

I’ll put some up when it’s delivered tomorrow. Once it’s here I’ll look at getting the Massey 50

The Marshall will be used for topping a bit of ploughing and cultivating not huge amounts of work. The plan is to get the 50b too as it works out less buying the two machines than one to do everything

Hi everyone, I’ve posted a couple of times on here looking for advice about tractors Ive been looking at to buy, well I finally bought one and wanted you guys options on weather I made a good choice. The tractor is a Marshall 704, no loader unfortunately but I know a guy with a Massey 50b at a...

After we’ve done what we are doing not that often hopefully. We need to redo the the drive and outside our stables it wasn’t high on my grandfathers to do list but there’s more pot holes than drive now, after it’s done it should only be the odd bag to keep on top of it.

Basically I need to move the bags from where they’ve been dropped to a trailer then unload them again

That’s a good rule of thumb I like it
