 Well fellas,, here it is!!! Presenting the newest member of the family!! Anyone ever see the movie "Doc Hollywood"? There is a scene where the little Porche gets Tboned by a semi truck, and the town mechanic is looking at it with his head tilted and says, "I think I can fix that!!" I spotted this tractor about 2 years ago, while moving a mobile home off of the lot it was sitting at,, it was in a very old barn that had fell in on it. I was in the neigbor hood over the weekend and seen it was still there, so i stopped in to inquire about it. The gentleman that owned it since it was new, said it had not run in about 12 years. I asked him what it would take to buy it, and he said well, is 150 too much? After i picked my self up off the ground and said, are you sure? he sais yep!! I paid him and picked it up 2 days later. It took a JD backhoe, and a small case loader tractor to load it on the trailer. The brakes were rusted stuck on it, so the wheels would not turn. We basicly picked the 88 up off the ground with the 2 loaders and backed the trailer under it. What do ya think???? ChadS
