Went to a local auction a couple of nights ago. They had a 130 hp. Valtra tractor. I understand the Valtra to be a Finnish made tractor? Some there mentioned that they thought the Massy Fergueson was made in the same plant and possibly the same tractor now? I was told AGCO markets them primarily in South America and Europe. Anybody on here have any idea how accurate this info might be?
The Valtra brought $13,000 annd change by the way and was a low hour tractor in nice shape. There was a Kubota 4wd with a loader, low hours, looked like new, that brought $26,000 and a Case/IH 5120 2WD that brought $11,000. The auctioneer had to REALLY work to get what he got for the Valtra and the Case/IH. The auctioneer could hardly keep up with the bids on the Kubota until they got past $23,000. Of course the Cas/IH is one of the models that the hydraulic pump cost $12,000 on, too, and word is getting around. I talked with a local mechanic at the auction who told me he has figured out how to get around that. He didn't voluteer his alternative and I didn't ask.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
