Hi, a nice Chaseside brought into our local scrap yard last year, spotted whilst we were attending to their New Holland handler. Was in good shape and a runner, orginally was used in a coal yard then in its latter life in a wood yard. I showed interest in it , scrap guys came up with a grand price, though it was at the peak of scrap prices. We kept thinking about a purchase but alas she was cut up!!!!!!!!!!


Cheers John

What a shame that 700 (I think) had not been knocked about. I reckon the high scrap prices have seen a lot of old Brit engineering heritage disappear.

It looks like it was a manual gear box by the position of the gear lever. They used to have a wide brake pedal so that you could use left or right foot and tranfer from one to the other.

Some one had nicked the rear corner counter weights.

To cut this machine up was a sick act of greed.

Hi, just spotted what looks like a half decent Chaseside on Ebay, item 320467813456

Chaseside Loadmaster 700 at the Doe show photographed by member of Brit Farming Forum (Sputnick). Stupidly I did not take my camera.

Pete looks a tidy machine, was it for sale or just in classic line up

ps: was that taken today or yesterday ? I looked at weather this morning and it said rain so dident bother going, Now its snowing heavy up here again.

I don't think it was for sale, I think it may belong to the same owner whom owned quite a few of the Ford tractors on display.
