Description:
An previous tractor with somewhat extra horsepower and no know-how in any respect 🙂
Foreword: This tractor has no know-how or frills
I used to be out on the farm on a wet day and handed an previous barn.
And there I discovered it, the previous Fiat 1300dt (recognized from the LS19), engine injury, paint injury and you possibly can see
that it had seen its finest years.
So I hitched it to the MF8S and pulled it into the workshop, after I had a transparent image
of the whole lot the previous one was lacking, I used to be decided to place collectively a brand new farm tractor.
Espresso was made, a rock basic was taking part in on the radio and I set to work underneath the welding hood.
Out with the previous engine and in with a nonetheless usable 6-cylinder diesel with 7.2 liter displacement.
An previous Iveco Turbo, which was simply ready for use within the nook of the workshop, was additionally rapidly tailored.
After the engine operation, which truly went very properly, I assumed concerning the work that must be executed on the farm day-after-day.
I rapidly realized that with out entrance hydraulics, the previous Fiat would solely be capable to get a brief job. So I took a lap across the farm and checked the previous Steyr, which had usually been used as a spare elements retailer. And there it was, a well-preserved entrance hydraulics. A number of welds later, the conversion was profitable and the hydraulics have been prepared to be used.
A number of extra brush strokes with the great previous rust safety paint right here and there and the previous Fiat was prepared to be used once more.
It smokes, rattles, loses oil and you’ll most likely hear the gears altering even on the neighboring farm, however it runs 🙂
It’s now my new favourite on the farm and takes me again to my childhood, once you nonetheless knew previous tractors and your coronary heart beat sooner once you noticed them driving 🙂
Maybe it’ll carry some pleasure to one in all you too, so I’m making it accessible to you. However be warned, you want a number of oil 😛
