It'd be a much better place.

I was just struck by the effort he put forth to set up a very nice, clear photo of the items he had for sale. I even dropped him a line telling him so.

Almost makes me want to go buy an MT - almost.

It probably took him longer to line up, snap and upload the pictures than it did for someone to call and say they'd take it!!

He's still nuts!

tim s · Aug 1, 2014

maybe so, but see how long it takes you to round up all that stuff "if" you wanted it...

Ray · Aug 1, 2014

A couple days, and half what he's asking.

He has it all.I bought a tractor from an estate that bought a new 71 4020 ,new 4 bottom plow,disc,1100 field cultivator, 4 row planter,mower,rake,baler,and loader all at one time. 43 years later it was worth several thousand $ more than new.The dollar seems to be shrinking away.There is a 620 JD w/picker still in shed with[if tach works]641 hours

Ray,

Will expect to see them on Craigs list, in 2 days
I might be interested.
Thanks

I agree Tim. It has taken me 3 years to round up all that stuff for my MT and I don't have the rear tine drag and a mid-mount mower. I had to buy several land plows to make a good usable 1 & 2 bottom plow not to mention 3 snow plows to get one that is in good shape. I couldn't get a mid-mount mower locally so I have a No.5. If you put in the time and effort to find, pick up, and rebuild I would have been better off finding a deal like this and paying his price.

Ooh yes,, it takes time to drive around just checking on pieces....but that too is part of the adventure...

I would have to agree. That tractor and equipment looks like it is straight and in pretty good shape. If that was just what one was looking for I don't think the price is out of line for that set of machinery.

If I were looking for a tractor just to putter on a few acres with a big garden I would consider this MT......and I am a real cheapskate! You could spend a lot of time and fuel chasing around individual pieces
