It's a cool engine. Unfortunately I didn't get any info on it but if I ever see it again I will see what I can do.

Yes it was early spring.

I never looked at it that way but I guess it does for the uninformed.

Thanks

Yes it's got a mean look to it.

Do you mean Wyndham Road?

I'm assuming you mean Wyndham Road. If so heres a video driving from the north end of Mataura to the Wyndham Campground along Wyndham Road. czcams.com/video/OhHO9tHFnnA/video.html

It's registered as a 1977 petrol CFQ which is clearly wrong otherwise I would have more info.

I have always thought how good one of these converted to tandem drive with a Cummins engine along with a roadranger gearbox. By the look of this one I would say it is a tipper

That would certainly perk it up. It does look like it's a tipper I couldn't investigate too much as there was a fire person across the road watching me.

Yes first time I've come across one of these.

Nice not many around.

Unfortunately I didn't get a lot of traction engine footage. I've uploaded three more separate engines in addition to this video czcams.com/video/Ev6WuzVwGdY/video.html where some of the engines were waiting to head out to the parade. There was a small amount of a dark blue engine and a miniature engine that I didn't upload. Hope this helps.

Thanks and yes it's not much of a video of it running and driving which is why I didn't put that in the title.

How much is the price for two Inter-National tractors?

Some of them at the start I remember playing on in the early 80's as a kid. A lot I've never seen before or don't remember. The only region of NZ I have never been to is Northland.

Thanks! 😊

It appears you are correct. I went by it's legal registration without double checking which has led me wrong again. Thanks for pointing it out.

Bit of a shame it got sold for scrap. This is only the second of these I've seen. The size of the motor indicates it must be a real workhorse. I believe there's two models of these. Yours would of been the earlier model used during the war.

@@ScenicDriveProductions I don't know how many HP the engine produced, a guess from here would be around 50-60. I know a David Brown Cropmaster from the period made 25 HP. Our version could pull a large trailed cultivator, while our equivalent DB Cropmaster had very big problems pulling the same. Yes, it's true, it was a shame it was scrapped, but at that time there were no people who wanted to buy the remains of an old worn-out tractor, even if there were 6 large wooden boxes with associated spare parts for the tractor.

I never really thought about it but that's very true.I did like the big plumes from the caterpillars but the noise from the detroits is unbeatable. Probably cheaper to run fuel wise with less wastage.

Off memory a little bit of the front is if you know when to look.

They seem popular. They're not that old maybe you can find another one.

They're a nice looking truck it's a shame not many are still on the road.

Looks and runs like new.

They seemed to do alright. I don't know a lot about them but the sound is fantastic. I like the colour too.

It certainly is.

Yes it is.

I just finished editing a few more 5000 and 2000 pulls and I agree. Not that good at all. In all fairness for this one the weight it's pulling most tractors struggled.

Yes they were and also the D9G.

I don't think it is.

I agree.

It could be worse it could be antique :)

Thank you 😊

I don't know much about these. I believe only two of this model came to NZ. There's a few different ones around but not a huge amount

@ScenicDriveProductions Yes, 60DA,the first diesel Chamberlain ever made, 70DA, Then I think 63 was the SUPER NINETY👍

Thanks

I never noticed at least someone's paying attention. So many Ford tractors in one place.

Thanks.

It's in that era unfortunately I couldn't find a serial number.

@@ScenicDriveProductions i ran a b model SN 25K 1215!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You would know more than me then. I haven't seen enough of them to tell them apart by model.

Thanks.

It is a nice place lots of history too.

It's been well looked after and cared for and it was good to see it working

@@ScenicDriveProductions It looks like it has and it was good to watch it in action! Has it ever been restored or anything at all during its life?

I didn't learn much about this engine. It's plausible that it will of been restored at some stage but I'm unsure. I do have a few other videos of this engine running a couple of things.

I thought that system would of been obsolete by the time these came out.

@@ScenicDriveProductions Na you can see carburettor on one side and an injection pump on the other side. Was very unique to international

I obviously need to pay more attention.

I haven't seen many off memory.

Stuff em they get hit it's there fault

I think so too.

First I I9 I've seen. There was an IH with an I in Palmerton can't recall exactly what it was. I'm guessing these are the industrial version.

It is hope to see again some day.

It's certainly a nice looking tractor and built to last.

No worries be good to see when it's done.

It is thanks.

Yip just man and his machine back then.

It's quite a tractor alright.

It's tidy for a 50 year old tractor.
