Greetings from 'Italy

Post by Super Major »

Greetings from Italy, a few days ago I bought a Super Major, here are some photos as soon as the weather improves, begin the restoration, meanwhile, for the moment I have replaced the regulator and I'm building a missing piece of the effort control.
Excuse my English, but I'm using a translator.

Thanks for the welcome! It is not my only tractor, but had long since I thought of buying it, here I come from many years ago, were among the first tractors bought and used them even with the threshing machine.

Pressure wash, service and a good clean of the body, and you'll double the value. Looks a good and sound machine.

Welcome Super Major,

Apart from the side and head lights it seems a pretty original tractor. The rust is only light and the sheet metal parts are hard.
Tell us more about the other tractors. Interesting to know witch ones you have.
Kind regards, Henk

Thanks for the welcome.
Sorry Henk, but with the translator can not understand the sentence.
The front headlights are not original, but as John said, you need a good wash. Worked a lot, but the engine is running very well and also the change does not sound strange. Only has a small oil leak from the engine, which will see better after washing.

Hi Super Major,

You mentioned, the Super Major is not your only tractor.
What other tractors do you have? This is what Henk asked.
Hopefully the translator understands this sentence.
Pictures are always welcome. :)

Do you have many 4WD Majors in your neighbourhood?
Best regards,
Pascal

Hello, yes, now I understand, the others are not Fordson tractor, I have two Same, a Lamborghini and a Fiat (all 4WD) that I know, there are two Major 4 WD nearby, then there is some 2 and some WD Dexta (but not many) For photos of other tractors, I would not want ot go, as are other brands, maybe I put in another debate.
