New to Me

Check this out, went to a farm auction and couldn't pass on this vintage work horse. I saved this one from the scrapper, I found out later that he was the only one bidding against me. No major issues as of yet, I may have questions if there are problems.

Good for you . Makes me sick to think of all the good iron that goes to China as scrap . Just like all those beautiful horses that get slaughtered because people don't want the work involved to keep them or can't afford to feed them anymore . If I was younger , had the land & finances , I'd do my best to save some of both .Nice looking tractor . God bless, Ken

I will send you all the BEAUTIFUL horses you want, as long as you feed them!!!

OHHH,you have no idea how much higher you'd have had to have gone if I'd been there to bid against you on that!

....Speaking of horses, I checked the serial number last night and the tractor is a super 77. The engine block numbers indicate a S88 or 880, 265 CI and a little higher compression. I had to pinch myself.

Just looking at the picture it appears that thing is
a puller with the weight brackets and tires and that
would also explain the different motor. It is a
shame that it could have gone for scrap. Glad you
bought it.

Nice looking rig. Wish my RC looked that nice.
Have fun with it.
