Hedgrow find yesterday

Adirondack case guy

Well-known Member
I caught a neighbor out by the road yesterday. He has the first 800 that Dad sold. Anytime I see him I tell him I would like it.
He was at the wake when a realitive died recently, and told me he had a Case rake out back that Dad sold them. We crawled through the berry bushes and thornapple trees to the rake, looked it over and asked what else he had that Dad sold his dad. Said he had two plows. We fought our way through some more brush, and there was a MTA44/rolling landside, and a JTA44 sitting in the weeds. I need them like a hole in the head, but I want them. The plows would look real nice hooked to the twins. Hopeing he will take $500 for all 3 peices. The 800 is not for sale yet, still using it on 3pt buzzsaw. He walked back to the dash of it, put it in neutral and turned the key. Started rite up and purred like all 267 indirect injection tractors do. "DROOL"

I would offer to buy him another tractor and trade for the one you want.

Nice find on the other pieces.

Loren I hope You end up getting them. Its all nice stuff and the family history is a great bonus. I came across a CASE dump rake in a grove while hunting. Its kinda neat but I don't know what I would ever do with it. Tractors and plows, now thats stuff we can play with. Rod.
 
good finds, and nice to see family history to be involved as well. Be a realy good deal for $500 as well, good luck. Hopefully he come around on the 800 sometime.
 
Geez Loren what fun! Wow, when you find stuff Pop sold, I just love it too.
We didn't sell many rakes, but what we sold is gone. I lost the first "811" my Dad sold, and still regret not calling the guy more. Great post

Loren,

Hard to believe that stuff is still there with scrap prices so high the last few years. Good to hear you found it and can bring it back to your collection. No Case cars in that fenceline? LOL Don
