Interesting.

That's fun. It is located in a gorgeous area of Japan. So how many, roughly, fit in a standard container? They have another video of them loading one, but I don't recognize the frames.

@YanmarFever Thanks for sharing!

All the best,

Peter

Not many YM machines over there anymore. Lots of KE, RS, AF and EF machines now. I did see a few Hondas. I was surprised by that.

A nice KE30 or KE50 or KE60 with the 3TNE84 engine and the updated controls would be a rival to many of the new tractors today in it's class. The same engine is in the JD790 Yanmar made too.

You sure that isn't the back yard of one of the guys on this site? interesting video. Anyone see a loader? I didn't see a single one, lots of tillers though.

Ernie, did you ever go over with Bud (EFC) on a buying expedition? I liked his description: buyers from the US were outnumbered by some larger buyers from other countries. He quoted one from Iran - "I'll take that whole row. Lets go get lunch".

And was that you who posted here, that tractors for the VN rebuilders were mostly incomplete hulks, just bits and pieces, and might as well have been poured into a container that was stood on end.

Cal, it was Buck from EFC that did the expose on the Vietcong tractors back in the day...
Remember those? Boy were they ever ugly, more like smoke and mirrors for the unsuspecting.

We had a friend over there that hand picked our units for us, that's why they were so gorgeous.
And then Koyker Mfg loaders were the icing on the cake!

I met the some of the nicest people and members here because of those machines.
When we moved I filled a 20' dumpster of rototiller parts, wheels, tires, hoods, cabs, old seats, and tiller bkts ( I almost cried)
I cant dwell on Yanmars to much or I get depressed because it all ended so fast and ugly, thanks to the liars, I mean lawyers...

Only saw one and it was full of water. Must have been standing in the rain for a while.
