Centrepin Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) Is it worth a resto project? Not for me, it's beyond my capabilities. I might be a while replying as 4G signal here is hit and miss. Thanks anyway.

ditchman Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 (edited) main thing is the grousers look in good condition...........you wont have a problem with the engine as it is a super major unit....parts still available.....its just mainly the tin work yellow colour suggests it was a construction unit in its first life has it got 3pt linkage PTO output shaft or just a drawbar if it hasnt got a PTO then it has a simple single stage clutch...so thats easy and simple....not sure if the final drives are wet or dry clutches.... its basically a super or power major on a frame with a simple back end on it and idlers on the front instead of wheels....should be mechanically an easy fix..........the tracks tensioners i think would be mechanical not grease hydraulic...so easy peasy Edited May 30, 2021 by ditchman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrepin Posted May 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 No PTO as far as I can see. Apparently still runs if jumped. Just needs TLC. LOL very lot of TLC Farmer told me he has "thousands" of pigeon on his crops, so far I've seen 1 gull, 1 small low flying aeroplane and too many cats. But.....he has barns full of half finished projects and the most amazing workshop outside a commercial garage. A nice unshood Shire horse and a old carriage to go behind it.

We just got to chatting about them and what it would take to get them up and running again. Bit of wishful thinking on my part as I couldn't do them even I wanted too.
