Hi every one. Ive got a couple quick questions to ask.

1st off Their a small local farm machinery auction comin up near my local, an they have two pieces of CASE farm equipment. A grain drill, an a 4 Bottom semi mount plow.

1st question what would a 10ft, Case grain drill, with both Grass seed an Fert boxs be worth? The Grain drill dos seem to have been sheded since it was new, as their is very lil surface rust. An Id say it was built around the late 50s early 60s.

2nd question
The plows are with out a doubt case, semi mounted, 4 bottoms, Probably 16 inchs, side hill hitch, an it is a Hyd Reset rig. This plow judging by the decale was made around the late 60s. I know it wasnt built in the 70s cause we had one of those models once years ago.

Ok how much is a plow like that worth, with out knowing what condition the bottoms are in?
An also were these Hyd reset plows built by CASE in the 60s ever knowin to have a problem?

Ive been lookin for a set of 4 bottoms this vintage to use with my 930 for some time now, but I dont want to buy a set of plows that were prone to trouble, thanks to their reset system.

Help please. I will probably git the Grain drill if its cheap enough, cause it will be better to get around then our Giant IH drill we have now. But I dont have the $ to waste on trouble some plow.

Thanks in advance. :)

Hydraulics worked fine. The 830 had power down on the 3 pt so you could push the front of the plow in the old Rocky Mountain adobe clay and drop the back with the tail wheel all the way off the ground and the back end of the plow would follow and go just as deep as the front bottoms.

Wow I can't imagine farming anything more steep as we had I remember some places in the fields where we couldn't/wouldn't plow or mow because the side hill was so steep that during spring thaw when the ground was saturaed some areas would slide down hill a bit and make a vertical drop off. Our ranch was 15 miles North of Steamboat Springs, right in the Rockies.The south end of our property ran right up on Elk mountain, a 9,800' "hill". Our front yard was at 7,000' so you can imagine what most of our tillable land looked like.We had a few spots that were not so steep but not many.

You need more than 4 bottoms to make that 930 snort.

We had a 5 bottom version of this plow built in the early to mid 60s. Marvelous pice of equipment. Pulled it with a Case 830 diesel with dual range transmission on the steep hills of Northwest Colorado and flat land of central Texas. The 830 pulled it well in Colorado and real well in Texas. You won't be disappointed. (Trails well too when transporting on the road!)

Thanks for the feed back. So I take it the Hyd reset never had any serious glitchs then?

Oh an 630crazy I know a 930 can handle 5 or more bottoms, But I live in Northern PA. An I plowin up steep hills, an mountians fields filled with some rocks that make my 1070 snort, grunt, an come to a dead stop with my 5 bottom Oliver plow. 4 is enough for the 930. ;) an safer.
