Must be well looked after all those not many 600's about without rotten doors

They are getting to that stage now.

Doors can be replaced, not sure much can be done with the rest of the cab

 

[CrevisbigX]

The cab on the 2 wd 699 turbo has gone now used as doner parts. Could do with 2 new doors on the hedge cutting tractor.

We are keeping it as spares but we could have one knocking about.

After 40 + years it's finally been replaced....by a Sanderson.

Would of preferred a JCB but the condition won this over for us.

Loader is coming of 4000. She won't be sold. Loader will be kept in the shed as a back up

The Sanderson is probably classed as a classic now!

Picked up some beet for the ewes yesterday

Nice outfit there had her long?
Where do you get the beet from?

 

[blackieman83]

@Thomas5060

Thanks.

Had the 674 about 3 years now, she was due in for restoration this winter, but last years winter restoration project, namely my dads 474 stripped the brakes so she is now back in the operating theatre instead unfortunately.

Get the beet from a local fella here he grows about 50 acres I think, it's £40 a ton this year which is sorta on the upper limit but for a relatively small flock such as my own I think it's still worth it, have been using it since the bad spring of 2013 and ewes seem to do well on it. Will dig out a picture of the 474 later and post it in here.
