Everyone,

Our family farm was destroyed Saturday night in Weatherby, Missouri. My parents and sister lost everything. Both houses, all of the farm buildings, contents. The only thing left were vehicles, all totaled, the John Deere B and our Farmall 400. My mom and dad did salvage a few things out of their house, part of it was left standing.

My parents were able to survive in the basement with one of my sisters and my 2 yr old nephew, but 4 of our neighbors were not so lucky, they were killed.

The 400 was my dad's primary tractor and it has a loader. The tractor was damaged and we now are looking to find a 400/450 wide front to transfer the loader from.

I know its red paint, but I need your alls help to try to find one. Dad and I have a lot of cleaning up to do.

If you all have any leads or ideas to help me locate one please let me know.

Thanks and God Bless,

Robert

Robert,

Sorry to hear about your losses. You have a lifetime of work and memories and one of these storms comes by and in a split second make history out of it and sometimes you too. At least you folks got out with your skin.

We have cellars in N. Texas too but the problem is when to use it. Our storms come in at night and you can't see anything....thank goodness for the weather channel and internet radar pics. Don't want to sit in the cellar when there is a nice bed to sleep in in the house. Course if you knew a storm was going to reduce your house to kindling you would jump at the chance.

I found a 560 diesel with a wide front with a F-11 Farmhand on it. Our 400 is LPG and the loader is a Koyker Super K. Are the 560 Diesels an OK replacement for my dad. I don't know anything about an F-11 Farmhand, are they OK??
