    It doesn't actually show it falling out, but he does make reference to it falling out. He going way too fast I reckon anyway.

    Good simple tractor. You would get used to splitter box's on newer things however. Not really suitable for people taller than 5 foot 8 , or you will develop a hunch looking out the screen. sit upright and your looking straight into the roof panel.
    Have a 90-90 and its been very reliable .

    The 110-90 had serious pto power, used to run a double chop behind one.

    machinery has moved on since i was there, then it was not unusual to see an old Farmall tractor on frontline duties. mind you, that was up the west coast of the south island. Do you still have bobby pens at the end of the road?

    I've a mate on the west coast now and he has fresh enough gear, problem is its all rusting to bits! Some places have them beside the road but where I am normally not. Over on the coast it is more common though.

    This is the tractor I had on the last farm, did all the work for 400 cows, feeding silage, shifting irrigators and mowing/topping. Sometimes all in the same day, ya had to get used to putting things on her with speed!

    Young lads!

    Althought to be fair that is a common problem with the Fiat super comfort doors, especially if the door was strained at any stage. Happened to a friend of mine while they were sitting the the passenger seat of one, she got a big fright to say the least!

    Fantastic Machines though

    I know this fella, he's a damn good operator to be honest. Reckless/hard on machines definitely wouldn't be normally used to describe him!

    sorry pic quality is rubbish .. was out mountain checking the cows and spotted 2 foxes at distance.. messing around doing the rabbit call and never watched the one get so close behind me.. he was about 7ft away(taken by iphone in the dark in daytime mode so it looks further away but he was on top of me I had to lash kick at him as he kinda rushed the last few feet at me as I was trying to zoom in and I thought he was going to lunge upwards towards me/the lamp
