Hi Folks, do not recconise the tractor but the rear wheels could be the type used
several UK makers of backhoe/loaders using Fordson Major skid units. The blue
container is part of a common pheasant feeding unit here in the UK. MJ

Think it is a "Dinkum Digger" made by Whilock. Looks like the later version before they were taken over by HiMac, It may be a Ford 4000 underneath all that iron and steel.

Finger trouble, should have been Whitlock.

Looks like it's still on the job, just taking a break. Always liked a good loader/backhoe, such a useful machine.

Yup. If I'd had access to internet and had been able to meet the good folks here when I had the JD 4010, I'd still have one. It had a 3-pt backhoe, but it was a strong digger. Sold it at a loss cause I couldn't get the derned thing started. Found out AFTER the fact that the problem was fuel pump.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, a mechanic I'm not.

I also need to add that when the 4010 [i:440dfa1707]was[/i:440dfa1707] running, it sure did like to drink!! :shock:
