John Deere 3050 full restoration Northern Ireland

[@hugoagogo9435]

Makes me wish I’d kept my old 3350 when I see this. Excellent job and great footage showing the effort put in

[@colinelliott8417]

Thanks, have a look at the 3650 it’s more detailed

[@hoedemakerbart]

In the 90s the farmer next door here had some john deeres, including this model 3050, awesome machine. They don't make em like they used to

[@simongleed]

What a stunning job you have done. I once owned a 3650 and to this day regret ever selling her. My brother and I restroed a leyland 804 to a very high standard by replaceing everything from front axle 4x4 gears bearings and hub seals, drop box seals, new crown and pinion, brakes, hub seals, gaskets all round,, complete wiring, new cab (old stock new) new tyres and wheels, complete restoration in the cab, the list goes on. feel free to take a look by clicking Gleed link. I'm always inspired by other folks work and notice little things where I need to improve on. Great work sir :) We are now restoring a Chisftain Tank MK10 this has been the a mamouth job inside and out but nearly completed thnak goodness - back to tractors but I do have my eye on a 25lb artillary gun!!

When i was young, i have seen these brand new in the showroom. This one looks exactly like new. What an awesome job you people did.

[@colinelliott8417]

John Deere didn’t paint behind the nose cone or inside some guards and panels, behind the starter etc, it’s a more detailed paint job than the original John deere factory spec,
