RE: Swords into ploughshares for Pininfarina

Love me some agri stuff.
I worked for a used tractor dealer (primarily Ford/New Holland) just after I left school. Where I worked was next door to a large Claas dealer too so I got to see some interesting stuff while there including Muirhills, County 4wd conversions, Roadless 4wd conversions, a Ford 5000 based overhead cable rigging machine, Ford 8000, various TWs with tonnes of belly/nose/wheel weights hanging off them, Dexta/super Dextas, Cat Challenger, and even an FW60 (aka Steiger Tiger, this thing was a monster). Next door had some massive combines fairly often and once had a Xerion, which was damn cool.
I learned to drive a tractor before I could drive a car, and had great fun using the yard workhorse; an old Matbro Teleram.
it was a great job for a 17 year old
