Looks great Metsaman, we don't see a lot of David Brown tractors where I live. Have to keep my eyes open while driving around. Like to see one close up.

Thank You, David Browns comes quite rare here too in future because they don't produce David Browns any more... They close up factory in 1987...

I have been looking at the videos and I noticed....no smoke at all even under a load. That's good for 1866 hours.


and it looks good too.....

Good job! We see a few David Brown tractors around here, but not many. I notice it has a Case emblem on it too? When did Case get involved with David Brown?

Thank you, here in Europe David Brown was quite popular tractor brand to 1960 - 1985.

David Browns get "case" logo in 1972 when Tenneco-group buy and integrate David Brown in they business operations and those times Tenneco owns allready Case tractors. David Brown got "case" logo and also few color changes.

David Brown tractors name change to Case in 1983, David Brown/Case tractor factory close up in 1987...
