- I deliver some parts from www.armsplant.co.uk/ to Olivers and get an update on my 3170. I also have a good look round a selection of ex airport snow clearance JCB Fastrac 3185 and 3170's.

A bit of jcb heaven! I don’t think they have seen to much labour, it’s the salt that’s giving them a hard life. A tidy purchase for someone
Brings back a memory or two that 3185. I used to drive one back in 2006 carting sludge.
It was the first video l uploaded to UA-cam when l started my channel in October 2006. All my videos are now private so no longer public after YT banned me.
Great tractor's and good fun too. A bit of a pig to hitch onto trailers or machines because of the poor visibility out the back.
Top stuff George!
Just give me an old Fastrac 185 ... 😊 or a wee perkins powered Tranter 🤔 great for nippin to the shops 😂. Your fastrac is going to put smiles on yer face once you get her back.. it will all be worth it.. stay safe 🏴
Nice video my friend ❤❤❤♥
A very creative idea ❤❤❤❤
I look forward to seeing your designs. Congratulations on your journey forward
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Interesting those low hour fast trac's, we don't have many in NZ, thanks for sharing
Cheers Tony 👍
Thanks George for the update... Take care sir...
Great content george. 👌👍
Good video George nice for the update on the fastrac 👍👍
Great video George👍
Nice video, George 👌💯
I dread to hear what your bill will be
Nice one George
Hi George one of the fastracks might of been a cheaper option for you 🤔👍👌
Gold pot for the JCB fans. Fastrac should be back just in time for when you start getting busy with tractor work.
Hello George that last 3185 just needs abit of tlc and would look tidy and yours will sounds beautiful when done with the new head and exhaust manifold that Cummins engine will purr once again I can’t wait 👍👍
Lovely Cummins 6bt. Unbeatable 👌
JCB is getting there George al ready for the summer 🚜👍
Nice walk round of the airport fast tracs 💪 good to see the progress on your own one should be tip top when you get her back 👍
Good to see she’s not far away being back on the vids, sweet. When you said she all done at the start I got a little excited lol you bugger! 😂 haha ❤
Great stuff George, good to see Your machine is taking shape, Yes the auld salt is a steel killer for sure👌👍🙂
Cheers for the video
Great video George - The FasTrac should be as new when she returns!
re bonjour George encore une belle vidéo ,le jcb va être neuf , bon courage a toi pour la suite 😍👍👍👍
Fastrac come a long way. Thankyou again for the Torch buddy. 👍👍👍🤜🤛🇬🇧
No worries mate 👍
Salt gets in everywhere and takes it toll!
Where I work we bought a 3200 was imaculate 606 hours 924 miles 2010 we converted it to ag spec lovely tractor all utv light conversion :)
George the 5th wheel job be handy for some man drawing bales with attic trailer. Salt n Fert a disaster on machinery. Be a great buy for someone.
Keep up da great vids. 👍👍
9:19 won’t be CBs, they would have been on the airband channel so they can communicate with airport ground control, it’ll be a big reason why they are missing.
Thanks for the reply earlier about the Cummins engine, i’m a big fan of the 6BT, my favourite truck, a Leyland Daf 45-150 Turbo had a 6BT under the cab, back in the days before limiters, mine would do 90 ! (Mph not Kph)
Early of a Saturday morning i would blast down the M6/M1 from Birmingham to Croydon cutting through central London after a week of night trunking having saved my fuel money all week by not exceeding 56mph which would give me enough left to dash back so i could get home before 4am & still have a Saturday to enjoy after a 8 hour sleep. The rest of the week i never got home much before 6am.
My old 1996 Leyland didn’t have cruise control so i had a throttle stick that was cut just right that it would hold the speed around 56, crazy days.
Would’ve been interesting to know the hours on them George , pity you didn’t have a key 🔑 handy 👍
Hallo george the fastrac from Airport have a heavy work and nice to See that your fastrac became the new gearbox and Engine
Towing a 220 ton aeroplane is light work for a Fastrac and the airport staff treat them with care..... honest guvnor 😬
Hallo lizard thank for your answer Tweet from Germany Eberswalde by Berlin
Be worth flushing the fuel tank whilst your doing all that work ?
You will have to buy one
Nice one George did engine get new pistons etc
Was you having the pump turned up and bigger injector nozzles for more power?
You know you want one of them George 😂
Great video George, 80K machines? Did you find out George? Be good for straw carting - (gear jamming vid!!) 😂😂❤✊🚜👏👍
Nice One George good your fastrac progressing I mite be showing how thick I am but wood the 5th wheel take a standard artic trailer ? Have a good week Thanks again
Hi Darren, yes they were just standard fifth wheels so would take an artic trailer, although there was very little overhang available so they would only realistically take a trailer with a pin right at the front 👍
@@GeorgeSaunders Thanks For the Reply have seen similar things advertised in the past and wondered if that wood work for haulage with out having a trailer specially made Thanks Again
Do you recon they are a reliable second had tractor mate the 3185?
Maybe not reliable, just look at mine 🙈 a lot depends on how they've been looked after, you looking?
@@GeorgeSaunders I have my fordson diesel major but keep thinking about something in between that and a modern one mate
Those would be good on swan neck trailers 🤔🤔🤔
They Dont use Salt on Airfields,They only use Hot De icer Liquid that is Not Corrosive.If They Used Road Salt All the Aircraft Would be Scrap and Falling out of the sky on your House.
I Worked on a RAF Base for 8 Years,Mechanic for Last 14 years.
My thoughts exactly on the salt. Think they often have snow plough and brush combinations. Never use salt as that'd wreck the aircraft. They use chemicals to reduce the freezing temperature of the water.
ahh i miss john 😢
She’s going to cost you a pretty penny mate but she’ll be good as new ❤
Did you see " DISASTER DAY " ..MR HEWES.
You can never have too many fastracs
Any salt damage? Snow clearing machines in Canada are notoriously rusted all to hell.
George I’ve noticed your audio is getting very tinny lately. Ever had a play with the rode wireless go mics?
Yes the Sony's record with a fair bit of treble, depending on the video I do adjust the audio, 👍
I don't know much about fastrac's but i don't reckon there's going to be much change out of 10k for repairing your's allthough he should be a gooden once he's done.
Have you given up on the Belarus?
No, just got to sort the main tractors out first
Will 10k cover it
Is the engine in the 3170 a Cummins 6BT ?
Yes👍
Sods law that when you were in the market for a fastrac George these low hr machines were not for sale 😢 the price of your repairs bill is worrying me and its not even my tractor George 😂
Nice update on your own Fastrac , great walk around the other Fastrac 's. Well done George 👍🔩🚜
I wouldn't want your bill when that Fastrac is ready
Yad want to sell a few cows and calves and 500 round bales to pay that bill.😂😂😂😂😂
Why don't you buy that fast track . George. And just swap the wheels & tyres over.
Ur old mate Jb. Back out working with a 20 year old leyland. He s gone into horses. Didn’t know weather to laugh or cry pitty the poor bugger driving that
That tractors fine for the work its going to do. I think with the cost of new and second hand machines its worth keeping a older machine running. Old tractor will do pritty much the dame as a new one.
Hi bud I work my family’s 1800 acre arable farm in Worcestershire ope u get fast track back soon we r all fent. All around 260 300 bhp we were the other green but reliability issues and dealer back up fent is very good jus had our 1st t8 nh. For 10 years impressive so far
I used to drive a 3185 many moons ago. Used to hunt down every other tractor on the road 😂
lol
