Hey guys,
I bought one of these pickers in the fall of 09 at a sale. Gave a little more than I wanted to, but I bought it simply because you just don't see em everyday.. (and they haven't built them in ALOT of days now).
When I bought it, it was "dry stuck".. I got it broke loose, have rewired it, had starter/gen done, etc.. waiting on the weather to break a little to see if I can't get it to fire and run.
I got a operators manual, I know I got the later series (with the 6cyl).. I'd like to know some about them.. Shy of mine and the one a friend of mine bought a day before I bought mine, I have never really seen one up close.. and being 29, I have NEVER seen one actually working, so I'm just trying to learn something about this relic I now own.. (And I don't care if it was junk or not either.. I don't look to make money with it.. Or use it on a million acres.. I just plan to make it work and preserve it)
So, is there anyone out there that can educate me on this piece?
Thanks in advance,
Brad
