Hello!

[LarsS]

Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum, I am Lars, 26 years old and living in the north-west of the Netherlands.

We have 3 ford (son) tractors,
-Fordson dexta
-Ford 5600
-Ford 8240

The dexta is from 1962 on the farm, but sold around 1960, and bought back around 1980, unfortunately with a broken engine, a motor of a super dexta is then purchased.

We still use the dexta, which is equipped with a detachable front linkage (also fits on the 5600) for jobs such as hoeing, spreading slug pellets, and all common minor jobs.

Some pictures.

Hello Lars!

Lovely pictures of a nice tractor. It's amazing that the dexta is still of use on the farm.

Hi Lars, welcome and congratulations on your well kept Dexta, great pictures. I see you have employed a very good operator, just love, food and water, no striking etc.
Your field of cabbages looks like it will be a good crop in a few weeks time.

Nice pics Lars. Great to see a Dexta still working as nature intended and that front likage looks quite unique. Welcome to the forum from southern Tasmania, Australia
