Not fussedWhat class do you want to plough in? Vintage or classic?
How serious do you want to get
If it’s just for a few working days, then get whatever you fancy.
What's the bigger picture?
If you have aspirations of trying to get to the nationals, then there is a bigger picture to be looked at

International 574 I also have a 434.What tractor do you intend using??
The 434 is too modern for vintage, so if you want to get serious then you will be entering the classic classInternational 574 I also have a 434.
Unless there are other reasons you have to go TCN otherwise you will get tripped up sooner or later. Why create a mismatch when one day you might want to sell the lot as a going concern?574 was built from 1970 -78 so if pre q cab would be eligible fo Classic as would the 434. Looks as if you have no choice except Classic
Thanks for the replies guy's. Rather than wanting to discuss which bodies fit which class. I was hoping to spark a debate on the merits of each board. Seems to me that irrespective of class YL takes some beating.

My Dexta has it spot on.
It’s rumoured that the delineation between Classic / Vintage was primarily because the general consensus was that the TCN would totally annihilate YL’s.
TCN’s are much more forgiving than a YL and without a shadow of doubt pack the furrow much better. They also sit better and rock less side for side. They do take a bit more setting up but once done are far superior.
TCN’s gained favour in the early 60’s in our part of the world due to them being more robust than YL’s for commercial work. TCN’s we’re themselves done down by Kverneland Hydrein’s which were again more robust
Same old same old. The detractors all rubbished RWM’s but believe you me there is not a body to touch them, regardless of the ground conditions - in the right hands of course, subject to patience.
. I still say match the plough to the tractor datewise and classwise otherwise you are asking for trouble sooner or later
Surely rwms should out
Compete tcns etc with similarly able operators using
I believe tcns were a commercial board, which became successful on the match scene, where rwms were purpose built for match ploughing, so were properly designed for the job????
Why do you say this? Still comes down to man on seat and conditions but on most occasions yl’s would prevail!If you want to beat YLs you need FRDCPs..
