Instead of replacing the 1206, 806, 1750, and 870 with 2 newer upgraded trators this fall, I am instead gonna use harvest sales to pay off all operating/ coop balances, buy 90% of my seed this October, and 85% of my expected fertilizer. Push off all unneeded sales of grain to 2012. Added hearter and radio to 870, and we have it running really great now with the tune up. Going to give that a decent paint job, but nothing to perfect. 1206 is in process of getting the works cosmetically as everything else was gone through other than motor, but motor was checked out by IH and dyno'd and doesnt even use any oil. 806 gets new paint, 1750 gets new paint and they both have rebuilds within 500 hours. I will farm with these one more year as I have locked in decent fall 2012 prices for a decent amount. Betweeen now and next fall, I will watch the auctions and private sales for what I want as I will have free and clear grain to sell, a good operating line of credit with no balance due. When I do buy one tractor, I will put all 4 up for sale and let the 2 with the best offers go. I see too many guys my age and younger right now buying newer stuff on credit and I know that the checks from grain and livestock sales have the bank in the pay to order of line. I do not want to get in that situation.

Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
