tractor graveyard Devon sept 09 (pic heavy)

[Andymacg]

after spending absolutely ages trying to find this place as I was picking up a tractor that my manager had brought off them to restore, I was given permission to go around the old field and take pictures , excuse the quality as I only had my sony 5 megapixel camera phone

excellent stuff -

especially nice to see a John Deere as well as the usual TE20s etc


I can't be the only person here who has to sit on a few of any derelict vehicles I find?

 

[BigLoada]

Brilliant! This is the kinda thing me and Sausage dream of finding. Old knackered tractors are just the best man. Cheers!

Think its the 10th photo down ???
That looks like an old Russian / Soviet 'Zetor' four wheel drive ..really good old tractors built to take the kind of abuse they would have received on the giant cooperative farms out on the Steppes or deep in the arctic wastes of Siberia ..........drove one fer a bit back in the late 70s.....bomb proof they was !...........Chruist knows if spares are still available for them though!

Loving these very much...how sad that these havent been renovated to be shown off.

 

[Black Shuck]

Theres a 1970s Zetor in there and a Massey 35x as well!

Rusty tractors, in a field, just rusting.........nice!

As most of you enjoyed the the first lot heres a few more pictures for you tractor nuts to enjoy

rather sad sight

Everyone loves a vehicle graveyard but it is quite sad some of those lovely vintage ones can't have been restored. There are some real gems!

Smills.
