You might want to make note of the time and date. I went looking for something today and actually found it were I thought it was!!!!!??????

Jeff is using an old beater of a NH 718 chopper to chop bedding with. It was junk when he bought it but he paid junk price for it too. The two drive belts are getting so bad they slip all the time and replacement belts cost more than what he paid for the chopper. He found another chopper today, but it is 1,000 rpm drive. So I went hunting the 1,000 rpm shaft for the 1955 that I know I had around somewhere and found it (and one for the 1650) right where I thought they were supposed to be. Well, sunofagun!

If it was me the next stop would be getting a lotto ticket that way you would be brought back down to earth. Heck if you win the lotto you can spend all your winnings on the farm to get red of it LOL John

Hmmmmmmm, let's see now...........There is a 2-85 4WD up the road that hasn't been run for years that could be restored.................................Pop owned a WC Allis and there is one sitting about 15 miles away..........................................My oldest son has my old S-88 that needs to be rebuilt.....................He also has Pop's 88 that is in need of some TLC...........................Should I keep going???????

But you are right about coming back to Earth. The last three tickets I have bought (over a period of about 5 years)didn't have a single number. (smile)

We went to a dealer to look at a used Oliver tractor once and it only had the one shaft with it. When we inquired about the other shaft he didn't know where it was but said if we bought the tractor he would see to it that we got the shaft.......we took that as our sign and passed on the tractor........

Hah!
