Another one of my" babies"

That is the kind of tractor that my 7710 was parked around that gave me the impression that it was a small tractor, slightly larger than my JD2555. Turned out to be quite an optical illusion, until I started loading it on a Landoll trailer and it overhung the sides by almost 3 feet.
Nice tractor you have there, no doubt about it!

That's when Ford was in its' hedays. They were making big Louisville L-9000 & Aeromax trucks, They were big time into agriculture, backhoes, 4 wheel loaders and of course, all kinds of cars & light/medium trucks.

Those days are long since gone. Sad to see what Ford once had, the power they had to buy Versatile and other companies. I remember back in the 80's-early 90's it seemed like Ford would rule the world.

If that thing was any bigger, you would have to get your own Zip Code for it!!

Its not how big your tractor is, its what you do with it

What do you do with all those big tractors?

We have 3 of this size , This is usually my tractor and it's main jobs are pulling a 35ft air seeder and a 40ft chisel plough , Factory hp is around 280 but this one is around 320hp (Cummins L10)

Is that a New Holland before they had to stop using the brand name "Ford?"

jmf

This is a 1989 so ford were FORD-NH , But the only ford input on this tractor was the paint and dashboard ( similar to 7710 or TW series ). The tractor is still a true versatile .

My goal ( eventually ) is an all blue fleet , But i keep finding "Bargains" of other colours .

Farming tractors! Looks good.

How about a picture or two of what it drags behind it and why it don't need a three point hitch.

We run many trucks of all 3 stables and the boys fight for the chevs , The fords are next but the dodges seem to get left in the fields with a fuel tank in the back ?
