Hi Craig ... you dont half find these old pics :thumbs_up:

I would say that the first picture is of an early Landini with a Davis Backhoe.. Landini was bought by Massey Ferguson in 1960, and Davis Backhoes was bought by Massey Ferguson in 1957.

and the later version of the machine you see there is the MF 244..the second picture could be the larger Landini CI 8000, or Massey Ferguson 3366

Hey Craig ,I would say the first one is a Fiat FL4 made in the mid sixties ,I have driven one for many years ago. The second loader is a Case 1150. Anders.

Yes a Fiat FL4 Tubolare , tubular in Italian? The Fiat Allis script is a bit or artistic licence I think.
I do like the counterweight on second one !

I tend to agree with Anders .. it must be the 1150 Case
