Thanks! Weather is very good for melting snow now. Raining a little and above 0C in the night

Wow! Looks like it's in great condition!

Happy Easter! Weather is good here, sun is shining and the snow is melting. A bit cold in the night, so everything freezes again. Had a look at the County yesterday, and I think it will be at least a month before I can get it. Have to get the truck quite close to pick ut up (its a non runner). Cab i...

Wow! Great! Mine is the 7600-FOUR, second leaflet. I dont have any decent pictures of it, you will have to wait to after easter

would it be possible to install the Tapatalk plugin for the forum software. this is an app that gives much better reading and writing when using a smartphone or tablet.

County 7600 Four, have to to a big job on the motor. Looks a little rough, but mainly paint needed. 70% on the tires.

Please post the leaflet, Pascal I have no pictures at this time. Picking it up after easter when most of the snow is gone... Its paid though

Just picked up a 7600 for 600 euro.....

Wow, looks like its in very good condition considering it is ~45 years old Has it been restored before?

Hello Pascal! Sorry for not paying proper attention to this thread. Busy with renovating living room and kitchen :shock: I now activated subscription for all my threads here... How's your 4600-4 doing? Did you managed to get all the parts? I have not gotten hold of any parts yet. Still waiting for ...

Several of these still operating in Norway. The digging wheel is made in Norway by Rådahl. They also used Countys for this work. Needed the Howard/County reduction box to get the low ground speed. http://79.160.23.49/~frode/bilder/DSC_0827-medium.JPG http://79.160.23.49/~frode/bilder/DSC_0828-medium...

Tomorrow I'm going to look at a smaller model, made for Major. Complete with subframe and prop-shaft. Driven from the rear pto. Would be a good match for the County Super-4.

Very nice. This is my friend's old tractor.

Nothing less than this will cut it if you're serious.... :) Made in Norway by Øveråsen. Manufacturer of the only useable equipment for opening up mountain roads and clearing snow on airports :) Equipment is Øveråsen PW1100 with a 180hp Volvo D70 in the back turning the propellershaft for the blower ...

I use a snow blower on the back of the County.

try the waterhose! Or catch the cat and hold it under the tap until it understands

Very nice! Great to see some old photos :) Is the loader Malm Ørstad or Øveråsen? Looks like Øveråsen to me :) I have one just like this, I just havent had time to pick it up yet :) For all of you non-norwegians: Most of the countys in Norway were used in construction or in the forest. There were no...

The 754 is in a sorry state at the moment. It's been used hard for a lifetime, but is not beyond repair.
I'll make a project thread on it as soon as we start working on it again.

Ok! Post some pictures anyway Has it been used in the forest?

Great! Where in Norway are you?

Post some pics of the 754!!

Yo!

Contact Mark Osbourne in England for parts. He has everything you need.

You can try Stewart Trailers in Scotland for parts for the Hara-cab. The owner is a genuine county-fan and fabricates parts for the cab in his shop. I think he can supply all the parts you need. I saw Mark had 1174 wiring looms for sale at his stand at the Blue Force Conversions Day in Lincoln a cou...

Nice! Looks like you have some work to do on the cab
Mark Osborne will help you out with a new wiring loom.

Welcome, and please post some pictures of the 1174

Always nice to a County being looked after and used properly and not as boat tractor either :curse: Is the brown RX 2 yours to frode? :mrgreen: TSG. Hah! No its not a genuine. Not a RX2 anyway. Its a 808 (818 in Europe) with RX-3 tails and a 12A turbocharged rotary. I'm bitten by the rotary bug asw...

How are you planing to mount it? The Major was very popular for backhoe-use here in Norwaty (County too). On almost every conversion I have seen, the u-channels connecting the front axle to the gearbox is replaced with a subframe extending down and back under the rear axle. This subframe is a part o...

Very handy indeed. Put up a small video on youtube too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q_9ylIigMs
