Nope. They like to work. Especially for someone who takes care of them.

I had a feeling it would be a go to unit on your spread. Looking good. Jim

I thought at first that they had sent you an "undocumented" helper!

Well, so, how do you like the tractor?? Always thought they looked good with their streamlined engine covers.

Give her a treat, she's earned it. Besides her normal maintenance, give her a thorough Bath, buff out the oxidation, give her a nice Wax job, and clean her windows inside & out; and she'll purr for you for the next 100 hours. LOL!

Engines like to run, let her loose.

Had one dickens of a time pullin' it back out of retirement. For awhile there, it was one issue after another, but I "think" I about got the bugs all worked out of the old girl.

Only thing left is a new set of brakes and on this model, it is one huge, major undertaking. So, it gets to spend the winter in the IH shop after I'm done with it this fall as I just don't have the heavy equipment to do the job.

Otherwise, it is one sweet old tractor. :>)

I know it looks a little "crusty", but that has all been done. Just can't get away from the dirt and grime out here in the netherlands. :>)

Although, I might put a new set of decals on 'er.

He does not need to fold it. No one there to meet on the road and if he does he can drive in the field.

Looks good.

Could not use that dual setup here, would just ball up with mud and be no traction at all, we need space between the dual. I realize you don't get actual moisture there so not an issue for you.

Yep, I hear ya.

That problem is gonna be rectified when she goes in the shop this winter.

Allan

For sure,

Haven't had it folded up since I've owned it. If I really squeeze it and hold my mouth just right, I can get thru a 26' gate.
