Ya it definitely started out life as some sort of international loader skid unit most likely.
That cab (Yes it's a Danish Sekura cab off a 90 series DB or a Marshall) is worth about 3 to 3.5 k IF not rotten. He specifically says flat floor so it's a 1490 up which are the hardest ones to get.
They are truly like hens teeth.
The rest of that abortion of a collective must be worth about a grand if running (whatever it was) so he might get 3 or 4 k for the lot.
A very very VERY bad idea that someone laboured long and hard on unfortunately.
You'd be wondering what goes through some fellas minds to do that.
Seems to have an enormous nose , that doesn't quite ..fit ..
Took a lot of effort to make that as bad as it is, it could have started life as a loader with a compressor on the rear, hence the shuttle box, what's with the wire coming from the starter, and he'll never see it in Tipp with that colour scheme
Hmm. Very much a 'bitsa' project - I think I recognise at least three/four different makes just cosmetically alone. Rear hitch/no pto set up begs the question what is it for? Now I admit I'm an amateur but still.
International 444 for sale in Tipperary for €7,900 on DoneDeal
I don't know what this is but it is not an International 444. Where would you start? No PTO, no hitch. Looks like either a 90 series DB cab or maybe a Marshall cab on it. Homemade PS and it looks like a piece of box iron welded on to the front axle to stop it doing something it shouldn't be doing.
Nice paint job though.
well spotted detective
Would not like to see it doing any pulling or draft work at 175hp. The drivetrain was barely able for 135hp
Right door is open . I would assume there is someone there revving it. And the dog is most likely looking at that person.
But would agree not the best way of advertising a machine
Lifts your spirits to see a bit of black smoke when you floor it. Blue, white smoke is the stuff to put you off buying a tractor.
That's true, In the picture there doesn't appear to be anyone sitting in the tractor seat revving the tractor. There could be someone not visible in the picture that put their hand on the throttle as the picture was taken.. still doesn't paint a good picture of the tractor blowing smoke like that
All tuned up engines will belch black smoke with the touch of a throttle.

Not a very good picture to use to try sell a tractor and it benching smoke and not even powering anything
Maybe im missing something but i had to look twice at the asking price of the 8050 Valtra... Clarkes have a MF7718 that's 14 years newer for a similar asking price.

Handy Sammy for sale here, needs a pick up hitch but a nice looking tractor

Well you will have great reception with all the aerials, did the brakes on Crystals ever work 100%
Beaut of a crystal, they'll sell that no bother.
Im more into older valtras and valmets but always liked these old crystals. Looks to be a bit of value here, assuming engine, pto, brakes, etc are all in good working order. Would make a good standby tractor capable of doing alot of jobs and will hold its value

TThe 6480 would have shuttle for dynashift and forward reverse on the left of steering column which is nicer to drive especially in the yard whereas The 8120 would be floor change with clutching. The 8120 has a heavier frame tractor which would be great for say tanker work or road haulage where the shuttle wouldn't matter as much.the engine in the 8120 should be great to hold on on hills on the road whereas in my opinion alot of those 6480 s needed a chip
The older dyna 4, 6480 with 10k hours are around 30,
Would it be better to give the 10 more
I was going to disagree, saying look at what 135s are making but i looked up the price of them. Tidy original ones making 5 or 6
As reliable as any 30 year old tractor and I don't mean that in a bad way,might give less problems than newer stuff. would be half interested in her myself but they don't have selectable 1000rpm.
here is another dreamer
21k for a cablless 148
Brown tax book… and "thousands spent" so it definitely must be worth that much...
New battery, though 👌
At 7500e it would be a dear tractor
Sweet Jesus! Even if the 1 at the start of the price is a typo this is madness.
Fair price drop on the 8150... cab is probably well rotten but with a bit of TLC has the bones of a nice restoration project.

A nice clean looking tractors. I have never seen an 8120, were they reliable
You can see the name of a commercial vehicle dealer in the background in some of the pictures of the New Holland, that would be the first one to call to see if it is genuine or photo shopped
