You have some serious kit there lad its great to see some classic IH still at work is the 574 refurbished in any way or all original?

@EoineyMTX125 Thanks Eoiney, The 574 is Mechanically original, however it was given a bit of a face lift, cab re upholstered, re sprayed, decals etc

Very nice video, good to see those old tractors work :). a question, I've heard the english models of international was not that good in the quality, is there much work to do on the motor all the time on the 785 xl ? :-)

@mattilind123 Thanks very much, thankfully we never had to carry out any work on the engine, apart from routine maintenance, We have had the 785 for more than 10 years and it has never let us down

nice video of silage making. We have an international 78 on the farm I cant remember what the model number is, it does abit of tedding and it makes a nice change sitting in the open air if the weather's good! Our first welger baler was one like that as well and we've had welger balers ever since. We've also got an international 440 AllTwine baler, had it for as long as I can remember and that bales abit of hay and barley straw each year.

Yeah, very well done on the 574. I wish I could get mine looking like that and get all the electrics in working order again. And also would love a cab. But nice video and nice 574

@IH674Cumbria You need two double acting spool valves, like yourself there was only 1 spool on the 785 so we had to add a second spool valve which we sourced second hand

[IH674Cumbria]

@Knobbys9nuts Dont actually have a bailer yet, but i am thinking about it. Do the spools need to be doeble acting? At the monent i only have 1 single acting spool.

Thanks for your reply, James (sorry 4 confusion, ive changed my username!)
