Love the Allis Chalmers. we had 2 in our garage when dad retired from the farm. Him & his brothers were tractor tragics from way back.
Might have to dig out the grape harvesters.

I want a tractor.

I have no where to put it, no knowledge of how to drive it, no knowledge of how to fix it should i need to, and nowhere to drive it.

but still, I want one.

"County ???"
"international maybe? "

Nope, its a muir hill. One of these, but with an excuse for a cab
[img] ?v=0[/img]

"no knowledge of how to drive it"

Can you drive a car?
Can you understand the concept of multiple gearboxes in series using one clutch pedal?

I'd say thats all you need to drive one. Just make sure the brake pedals are disconnected from one another

@jontawn

My mum used to drive a Nuffield like this. She used it to take milk from the milking shed to the barn to feed the calves.

"dont know if you class it as a tractor"
Its a self propelled (as opposed to a trailed one powered by the towing tractor) sugar beet harvester

Its not a particularly big one though. Most farmers pay a contractor to lift their quota (by the sugar plant) quicker with a machine more like this:

One of the benefits of working in a forest is you get to see some neat toys, we operate one of only two mini Ponsse harvesters working in the UK.
