Cub Cadet-VERMEER M147A Trencher Tractor
 

Here is a link to a video i posted on tou-tub yesterday. It is one of my Vermeer trencher Cub Cadets. Vermeer contracted with IH in the early 70's and purchased a few 147's and 149's, stripped down versions, no lighting or lift system. Vermeer took the tractors, added their own hydraulics and their trencher. They repainted and relabeled them with a data plate, stickers, etc. IH never sold them, Vermeer did at their dealerships. I have some sales literature from Vermeer. I will try and get to post some pictures later as well. Eric

Eric that's an awesome video! Looks like it works great too! How deep does it go? Looks like 2 feet or so in the video.:bigthink:

I really enjoyed your vid! Thanks for sharing.

That is very cool!:beerchug:

That works great. Thanks for sharing the video :beerchug:

Wow that was awesome!! I wonder why they called it a 147a, and not a 149a?

I want one!:biggrin2:

That seems a little deep to plant your corn. :biggrin2: Wow, that was a great video and a quick history lesson on Vermeer and Cub Cadet. I've seen pictures of them before but never seen them in action until now-Thanks for sharing your video!
