How much would you be wanting for it.

You will need something older than the 3000 or younger than the TS59 to make a legal combination surely?

Ford 3000 andTS 59 is Classic class.YL 183 boards can be used in vintage or classic. TCN is the preferred board for classic class.

I was under the impression that 1959 was the cut-off date...

So our 1967 990 pulling a TS59 on YL183s would be legal for classic, if not competetive

Yes cut off for tractor and plough in classic is circa 1976. Pre Q cab is the term used

One on ebay, its at £720 with 4hrs to go. Looks a reasonable plough, but has shallow 163 boards on (which are perfectly ok). Last good one I saw go was ~£1500, don't think this will make that though! Maybe it'll get to a grand...

Although you would struggle to maintain the required 6.75 inches depth for the classic class with a YL165, and the Ford 3000 denotes classic the only class available
