Day804 TRACTOR SHOPPING AT JOHN BOWNES

[@robertallen3441]

The IH 585XL pair were sold at the Cheffins sale in April. They were ex British Sugar presumably from Bury St Edmunds factory. They were listed as having done 1600 hrs each, the one you looked at had a new hour clock at some time. Both sold for £9200 + VAT + buyers premium. The yellow tractor was a MM Minneapolis Moline.

[@livingoffgridinscotland]

Those 585s would be worth collecting since they’re so original, we had one new as a scraper tractor with an xl cab…

[@lauraheath104]

Great video ! Lots more to see yet 👍

[@theheepsey1120]

Oli the Duncan cab was the Roadless @ 5:32, behind the winch tractor :)

[@brianmullins5824]

[@peterclarke3300]

[@christinegibbins6105]

Good day out at John Bownes certainly got some gear thereFord Major is some beast great video again Ollie Feeling 95% today what a collection of Tractors must be worth a fortune Eddie

[@richardstrange7629]

Three wheelers are Minneapolis-Moline , from the states 👍

[@paulsaffrey906]

Those Cases were sweet reminded me of the 885s we used to run great workhorses wish I still had one feeling 90% today great blog,👌

[@BCWilsonLime]

What a great collection of tractors. I’m heading to tractor fest at Newby Hall, Ripon today, too. Great outro picture!

[@tony3424]

Great video Olly, it’s good to have a look round a dealers yard.. some nice bits of modern and classic kit there. Hope you get that auger sorted without too much hassle..

[@pacurran7353]

Super video christ am jealous we have no dealers like that over here love the old tractors great

[@avafw60]

Hi Olly, I never get bored of looking around John's place, he has an incredible collection of classics. The Fordson with the Liverpool attachment could well have had its components built very close to you. Lucas had a factory that was just off tarbock island.. Cheers mate 👍

[@simonbuggles431]

That was Lucas aerospace

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Yes it’s still there well the building is

[@avafw60]

@@simonbuggles431 Yeah that's the place. They built components for aircraft engines. I have a good friend who worked there for just over 50 years until the place closed down in the mid 2000's

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Fantastic blog Olly - what a place that John has!! The two “yellow three wheeled tractors” you looked at were manufactured by Minneapolis Moline and possibly date from around 1938. Boiler repairs required again!! Will make an interesting video.

[@laytonphillips6667]

Some great tractors there olly, them two cases are lovely. Renault is nice too, rode in one as a kid. 96%.

[@richardwatts220]

Good to see some Valtra for a change.

[@jbss7382]

@Ollyblog Agricontract farmer, The 2 Case tractors if they were British Sugar I wonder if they worked at Wissington super plant? They used have large scale tomato green houses as the tractor axles were set to wide spacing Thanks Jonathan

[@MickyNorris]

Olly you've gotta get that ploughmaster added to the collection!!! Awesomeness 👌

[@ajb542]

Eye watering money that would be, lottery win required

[@georgeehlers2575]

Love your dedication every day uploading a video! Buy that valmet in South Africa we get them from Brazil they do 15000+ hours easy

[@ianleak]

Brilliant video again, I am not so good at the moment 46%

[@GEOFFKV6080]

Great video Olly. Going to tractor fest myself tomorrow hopefully bump into you. Going to see Casto who's took his mb trac there

[@LeRisOutdoors]

What manufacturer was the custom orange tractor, I think I NEED one? 🚜

[@themunter4488]

Valtra

[@nickaf5262]

Those case 585 would make a good scraper tractor

[@jascollinscork]

Fantastic video.... love that tractors collection be for sale or not!! Could you visit a silage contractor or maybe visit Joe Seels when he is doing his??

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Could do

[@iainnorris3929]

Hey Olly, could you fix an electro magnate in the feed to the boiler to fettle out any nasties?

[@googies12a]

The old Spade wheel yellow one is it a Moline out of USA?

[@themayorofdipshittery3646]

Val et are really big for forestry work up here.

[@markphillips6998]

I appreciate I don't have to foot the bill for it but I'd love to see the Valmet in the collection Ollie 👌

[@johnwarwick4105]

Never seen so many tractors as it that johns place. Looks like he needs an aircraft hanger to house them. Don’t know how you managed to keep those blocks in place for the ash auger. 🤣🤣 great video enjoyed it 👍

[@darrenwood422]

💯 % today its a good day

[@PAYNEKILLER..]

I want to know if any of those tractors were tidy though 🤔 😆

[@paulmccabe9117]

Good show kiddo….👍🏻😂

[@davidallen4370]

my old fellow at newbe hall with a couple of stationery engines

[@therealisticfarmer8406]

Olly the reason why that fastract had a different hi hi is because it is a European make or a us make

[@therealisticfarmer8406]

And Olly what happens to the Massey Ferguson

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Which one

[@therealisticfarmer8406]

[@themayorofdipshittery3646]

That jcb 435 would be ideal for Tom Pembertons silage pit work 👍

[@brianthroup7891]

Is the yellow Three wheeler a Minisota Moline????

[@bufferbridge]

Minneapolis Moline RTN, sometimes refered to as a RTU but RTU had V twin front, RTN had single wheel, went up to John Bownes just for company to my cousin who was interested in a tractor, ended up buying one myself,lol, 95% today had 30mm of rain overnight

[@lukenicholl7746]

What tractor was Andrew looking at?

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Tbc

[@RichardJW1]

585s were ex-British Sugar.......they were in the Cheffins Vintage sale in May

[@miketaylor1916]

What did you buy?!

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

😉

[@ingenuk4266]

Doe's no one else think its strange how we never see second hand Renault tractors anywhere? Is there a reason for this? Someone told me they all got sold off when Renault changed to Class, but I still thought I would see some around.

[@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer]

Renault brand was bought by claas

[@ingenuk4266]

@@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer Yeah, but where did all the old Renaults go? You see old John Deers, Case etc. Someone said they all got exported to eastern Europe back in the day. Just seems like theres that many still in the UK. I remember growing up in the Borders seeing them all the time.

[@stevepettifer4896]

Nearly certain I had a Britains toy version of that Renault as a kid. Had a Volvo and (I think) a Fiat as well. Loved those farm toys, had all sorts like a New Holland combine in yellow, baler and round baler, round bail trailer, potato harvester, tipping trailers, towed forage harvester and all sorts. Spent all my pocket money on them! Wanted to be a farmer as a kid after we had holidays on a small farm in North Devon (mainly because I loved the machines, so your job would have been pretty much my dream back then), but despite living in a East Anglia no one ever really explained how a kid who wasn't from a farming family could get into it. Now I'm a software developer, but at least I still live in the countryside. Never got to drive the tractors though :(

[@arwelagrimachinery]

With Roadless if it was a "ploughmaster" that meant it had a ww2 American army lorry axle (GMC CCKW) , that axle on the 78 would have been at least 36 years old going on that tractor, same axle as the 6 cylinder super major one outside

[@thomasjibson4372]

Will you be going to cereals?
