Tractor Portraits

Here's my Mahindra 7520 with Land Pride PD35 auger. Just set an 18" post.

Brian, I don't care how often you post pictures of your Blue Mahindra but I can never get enough of it. Blue is a great color on tractors

I just noticed this thread so here are a few pics of some of mine.

The first pic is the Ford 640, 2nd is the TN65 with cultimulcher, 3rd is the TN65 again but brush chopping, 4th is the Ford 7710-II with a Heston 540 round baler, 5th is the John Deere 3300, 6th is the Ford 1920

It isn't all of them but the ones I have pics of that I can find at least.

The first picture is my first tractor, she has since moved on to another owner.

The second is my current (3rd) tractor. This was the day she was delivered.


Unfortunately I don't have any pics of my second tractor. It was an International 384. I only had her one year.

Looks to me that you made a biiig jump from tractor#1 to tractor #3. Those 4110's sure do look nice. Has it been a good tractor for you?

Thanks for the link, your site has a lot of pics so it takes a while to look thru most of it. Did Mahindra paint that tractor blue or did you do it yourself and is it any particular blue? It looks quite similar to the blue used on Landini tractors.

The dealer painted it for me to make the sale. I had told him that I liked the tractor and price, but that I hated red. He said that they would paint it for me at no charge if that would make the sale. Well it made the sale, but I insisted on paying to have it painted and re-decal-ed. After all, how good would they really do if it was a no charge paint job?

It is New Holland blue #(63/00)9613385DS

Hey, do you know if some of the tractors of Landini and New Holland come out of the same factory? They sure do look alike to me. Sort of like Agco, Massey, Challenger, the hoods are a little different. The rest is the same.

Landini tractors are the same as SAME tractors and are owned by the Argo company. The specs are all different on the tractors I have compared so I don't think they have any common tractors with CNH. Landini did have the Starland for a short time which was supplied to them by Buhler and was aquired by Buhler when Case-IH and New Holland merged. The Starland use to be the 70 series Ford/NH tractors also called the Genesis tractor. I am not sure how many Starland tractors Landini ever did sell but it was a short lived joint venture. I think that is the closest Landini ever got to having the same tractor as CNH.

I understand your concerns about wanting to pay for the paint job on your tractor. It looks like they did a great job and used the right color blue

Now if they could have got decals with blue accents instead of the red accents

Finally found one of my 1952 JD M and was my first tractor. The first tractor I learned to run was a MF135 but this M was mine and I use to use it to go get fire wood even though I had no need or use for firewood but it gave me something to do as a teenager living in the country. I still have this tractor but it is parked in my grandfathers barn until this spring when I will rescue it once again.

I love my 4110, great tractor. I have over 400 hrs on it now. I had some warranty work done early on, but I did not buy it expecting no problems at all. You don't grow up around old tractors and not expect something to go wrong. That old Massey was fun too, It would be nice to have it for a second machine today.
