Trouble is now, everything has been exported or is completely knackered at that age.

I’ve had these so called bombproof tractors
Someone mentioned a case mx, we had one, spent £10k on a gearbox rebuilt then 5000 hours later the diff fell out
Someone mentioned 10 series John Deere, we have one which we have just put £12k worth of reconditioned gearbox in it!

Use the clutch , ha ha

You need an old Leyland for hedge bashing,always regarded as one of the easiest jobs a tractor can do.

To get reliable high hours from any tractor they need varied work imho.

Few people saying JD 6400. Then one popped up on Facebook.

vote for case mx and not a bad tractor drive for its age. They are becoming popular on the modern classics. Won’t devalue much either.

He said bomb proof not one that wants bombing

Same Explorer 80. Oh wait, you said 100hp. Same Antares 100.

You can't get much more bomb proof than an air cooled engine.

 

[organic antares]

Same Antares 100

This one looks pretty bombproof to meView attachment 1014541

[Drillman]

the bomb proof tractor hasn’t yet been invented.

the closest you will be able to get is the Davy Broon 1954.

A series 3 Ford 7610 with a Powerstar transplant would fit the bill....
