I just finished a two day trip that included meeting an exceptional family in Northern Illinois and the acquisition of a very nice M series plow. I've been looking for a nice 3x14 Eagle Hitch mounted plow for some time, and recently found it. Mark Bowgren from La Fox, Illinois did a great job of restoring this example.
Meeting Mark and his father was a rare treat. We were able to reminisce about the good old days of feeding cattle in Illinois. It was interesting to find how similar our families were back in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970's.
Mark has restored a beautiful 1962 831 that his father bought new. I was so busy admiring his work on that I never took a picture. I hope he can share a picture here sometime. It truly is a work of art.
Thanks again Mark.
Looks like a perfect match for my 630, or maybe the 350.
My nephew Robbie seems to approve. I don't get to spend enough time with Robbie. He's an amazing little guy who is about to celebrate his third birthday.
