I used to do baling with a Massey Harris 701 baler pulled by a Nuffield with a P6 engine back in the 50s, This is great to see and brings back lovely memories, Thank you,
Not sure if you still actively watch for messages on this, being 9 years old but, I used to watch my father with this baler model in the UK in the late 50s early 60s. I was quite timid back then and used to run away some distance from the machine before dad could start the engine as it was rather a noisy beast 😮. Thanks for posting this reminder of my childhood days 😊
Lovely looking restoration. I would like a 701. I have been offered one with a PTO im going to see it in the spring. I think its been in the hedge for too long though.
