Anybody out there look at buying a tractor at some point and turned it down and now wish you hadnt. I can think of three we have turned down. The first was an unstyled JD G on front and rear round spoke rubber, this tractor sat on a dry barn floor most of its life and was in good shape. Passed it up for 1500.00 about 15yrs ago. The second was an Oliver 88 gas that belonged to my great uncle, its main purpose in life was to run the hammermill and the flail chopper. All the tinwork was there and in nice shape, it still had the original hydraulic cylinder hanging on the fender in its holster. Passed up this one in 91 for 1700.00. The last one was a very late model DC Case that belonged to my neighbor. This tractor had a foot clutch,eagle hitch and electric start and was in immaculate shape. The only thing this tractor ever did was pull a pto powered combine. Passed up on this tractor for 900.00 in 94. At the time we didnt really want any of the tractors but I sure wish I had them now, especially the oliver and the case. What have you guys passed on and now wish you had? Have a good one.

The Marshall company based at the Briannia Works in Gainsborough
