Ford 9700 with NH550 harvester lifting grass | Silage 1991

This footage features a Ford 9700 lifting grass with a New Holland 550 trailed harvester. This was taken during summer 1991 where the harvester was a demonstrator model out of Kennedy's in Ballymena, County Antrim. Some real mix of gear carting in including a Fiat 780DT, Marshall 802, David Brown 1490 and a John Deere 2130 in the distance. This has been one of our favourite finds so far - what a fleet! This gear was used by J Millar & Son contractors back in the day in the Braid Valley, County Antrim.
