mEl,
I have been following your posts for several years and joined the forum this morning so I could post this. I am a field mechanic for a Cummins engine distributor and really appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share it. I grew up on a dairy and tobacco farm in northeast Kentucky where we used Case 30 and 70 series tractors. Actually my grandfather and father were Case dealers in the late 50's and early 60's. Iwas born in 1964 so I am too young to remember. As the dairy herd required full time attention Dad made the decision to leave the Case thing behind and devote himself to to the cows. Just a little on my background and to say thanks for your participation.
 
Buzzsaw,

Mingua and Son Implement, Germantown KY was the name of the dealership. Dad sold several tractors, balers, and plows. I believe the largest tractor he sold was a 530. There are still a few 311B's and 430's in that area he sold and I know of one baler that is still in use by the son of the original owner. As far as I know that baler has never been wet. Dad said he had a Case-O-Matic in stock once (a 530 I think) but couldn't come close to selling it as his customers were coming off 8N Fords and such and thought the clutch was slipping on that new Case.
