How about a Cyber-Story. I have a neighbor that is Farmall Red thru and thru. I was poking around out here one day in the classifieds and noticed a Farmall MD for sale. The neighbor wanted one so I dug a little deeper and found it was a local area code, unusal for out here. I called the old boy up, set up a time too meet, and took the neighbor up the road 30 miles to the guys place. They got the MD fired up and struck a deal, and I asked if he any other old tractors for sale...he said yep, a WD-9, a Case 500, a Case 600 and an old Case over there in the shed that was kind of a rare one he thought. I looked in the old shed and found 90% loader and 10% tractor...Went home and ended up calling him again about a grain drill I saw while we were there. Made a deal on it and while picking it up, happened to go by the old shed again. There sat the poor beast under an Ottowa loader and I managed to crawl in and find the serial tag. An SI...I'd never heard of one. Got out here on the Case board and found out what it was and found Don Livingston for parts. It now sits proudly in the barn (sans loader) and the old boy that sold it to me comes by and visits now and then. He ended up being about the best damn friend I've had in a long time...alot better than my Farmall neighbor, but that's another story...
