[QUOTE="Cab-over Pete, post: 7821517, member: 416"] Yes, bit of a drag! [USER=76228]@sahara[/USER] !! These mouldboards are too far gone for flap wheels and such. They have some serious pits in them, especially the bottom three which I think may have been in the ground an inch or two. I’ve spoken to KV. The original parts are still available but at £220 each it’s a bit of a steep cost for a nostalgia piece that likely won’t ever plough more than a few acres. Then once I’ve got it done I don’t know what I’ll tow it with. The JD 2850 on 18.4s is a bit of overkill and the MF 165 might find it a bit much, although I do recall Dad pulling a 3 furrow Ransomes reversible with it 40+ years ago. It was a great match up with Dads MF290 years ago, but I’m buggered if I want one of those again! [/QUOTE]
