Throw in a few 2nd hand round feeders and a couple of bale spikes to entice the real big spenders.
Come on, show us the 50b too.
It is, and the torque is slipping badly.It's a torque machine, I did ask!!!
Will be up there tomorrow afternoon, doing a MF 6718S comparison, I will get a few pics of the 50BCome on, show us the 50b too.
You are absolutely right.All his tractors would have been worked regularly, there is a big difference between a tractor putting up around 100hrs a year and a tractor that is started once a year and driven for a few minutes, the tractors will be deteriorating if I kept them.
Changed the hours per year.
10 tractors is just too many for any man, now 6 and a digger is a nicer number, one for every day of the week and a digger for Sunday. .You are absolutely right.
Still, I would have an awful tough job in parting with any of them.
I am well recognized as a hoarder though. 🙈
It is in great order other than the torque, pity really, I don't have enough work for it to justify doing the torque, but it is worth very little as it stands.Not many 50B's with the full set of rear lights still intact!
if you haven,t got a digger already it would be worth keeping rather than giving it away , just while i think of it be aware of the valuation on those tractors when they were sent for probate because if they were valued low you could end up with a tax bill on the differenceIt is in great order other than the torque, pity really, I don't have enough work for it to justify doing the torque, but it is worth very little as it stands.
I made sure the values were kept fairly high for probate and all the machines weren't listed individually, so as long as I don't go over the total value, it shouldn't be an issue.if you haven,t got a digger already it would be worth keeping rather than giving it away , just while i think of it be aware of the valuation on those tractors when they were sent for probate because if they were valued low you could end up with a tax bill on the difference
ah you,re grand then , when they,re not listed individually there won,t be a problemI made sure the values were kept fairly high for probate and all the machines weren't listed individually, so as long as I don't go over the total value, it shouldn't be an issue.

My Great Grandfather and my Great Grandaunt bought a shed each, one in 1904 and the other in 1908 in 2 of the farmyards here, I don't want to take down either, both sheds are older than the Country and will be here after me.not sure if you've explained earlier in the thread @gone but would it be easier to alter the shed
