Ford tractor out of hibernation.

JayinNY · May 10, 2020

Its not to bad a day here in NY, so i went down to the farm to start my tractor, since i dont have horses anymore, the tractor is not needed on the manure spreader for the winter, so tractor hasent been run since maybe october. It fired right up, now its only job is to run hay equipment and mow pastures. The farm bought this tractor in 1990, i bought it from them in 2008, 4303 hours on it, its been a great little tractor. I only wish they had kept the ford 4600!

Jay. Nice tractor for sure. And yes, you can see the horse stall in the barn. I'm sure they loved it there. Wingnut

What was it a horse boarding barn

Yes, we bred thoroughbreds for racing, we had 27 horses at one point, just a small operation. We only kept broodmares, ect, no stallions. The mares were sent to other farms for breeding, then foaled here.

The Ford tractors from that era were great tractors. Guess they just didn?t have the dealer network or something. We?re all of these tractors built in the UK ?

Im pretty sure they were, im not sure about the 4600 though. Mine is a 4610
