3 pointsI have lived in my home since 88. House is on a main highway. Thought I'd seen everything. But tonight took the cake. Wife heard a noise out front when cooking dinner. Someone was broke down along the side of the road. I finally look out and there is a 4 x 8 trailer with a couple of tons of pea gravel on it. The right side tire is flat and off the bead. 2 guys standing there and lets just say English isn't their primary language. I go out to see if they need help. I ask " where's the spare?" They say " the house. " Someone is bringing it. I look at their jack. It's a 12v POS. I offer to help with my jack and impact. Spare arrives. It's the wrong one. It's a 15" and the trailer is13" So off they go. They come back about a half hour later and he's got this little bag.I'm thinking, that ain't no tire! He pulls out a Gatorade and 2 CANS OF EXPANDO FOAM!!!!. I ask where is the tire? " Wal-Mart didn't have it " I tell them to go to TSC. I Tell them about 10 times. But this guy is determined to use the foam! There is a chunk out of the tread and a slit in another spot. He tries to filling the slit and empties both cans into this tire. Another guy shows up with another trailer and they shovel half the gravel into that. But they also move the remaining gravel to the opposite side of the trailer and towards the front onto the tongue. Tow vehicle is a mini van. When they lowered the jack the foam squirts out and the rim is on the pavement. He drove off with it like that! I don't know if I will be able to sleep tonight because I can't stop laughing! Look close at the tire!

3 pointsMrs 8n and I took a couple of lawn chairs out to the end of the dock last night to watch the height (darkth?) of last night's lunar eclipse. Got a bonus of seeing a couple meteors as well. We both noticed how much ground lighting has increased over the years - she has been visiting this lake since the early 60's, and I've been visiting since the mid 70's. Got 5 yards of topsoil delivered today, so I got a few cart loads moved with Morgan, the 14-8. Nice weather to do that sort of work. I listened when my back said enough was enough - just a few years ago I'd have told it 'na, we can move a couple more loads'.

3 pointsThe fender probably cut the tire with all that weight. Lucky they're not shopping for an axle. I'm surprised they didn't shovel the gravel into the van

3 pointsAt that price point the “fun” part of the hobby is over and it’s become an investment/business dealing or a huge gamble. I’m plenty happy with all the $300-$1000 rigs I have here.

2 pointsYep dealer converted tho. True I quit Harleys and took up much cheaper horses because prices got nuts.

1 pointAugust 29, 2008, Taking a calculated risk to appeal to conservative voters, Republican presidential nominee John McCain sets the political world abuzz when he announces the selection of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate.

1 pointWhat we have here is a 0736TL04 tiller and fitments needed to mount on many long frame, C series, 300/400/500 series tractors. Notable details: Gearbox and tines have low hours. Tarp had blown off mid-mount idlers and got rusted up, probably need penetrating oil and new idlers. Axle mount is rusty/restorable/useable. Lift cable has nylon worn through on one side (they tend to do that). One rear jackshaft bushing has couple ears broke off, and jackshaft e-clips are lost. Belt is original. See picture, ask questions, more pictures available. Pick up in my back yard near Elida, Ohio. Bring help to load, or ramps or something. I think it may be worth $100. - or - Would consider trade for a used car or truck hood that I can use for a sled to drag firewood and equipment around on, something kinda rounded without points or ridges to catch. Have been using an S-10 hood for years, and it's wearing through becoming less useable. What 'cha got?

1 point@Ed Kennell, the Hydros have a much larger drive pulley on the engine than on an 8 speed requiring an inch longer belt, 5/8" X 82" for 8 speeds and 5/8" X 83" for a Hydro.

1 pointI'm lucky to have a couple of stations across the Hudson from me that sell it. About 8 miles each way. Typically in the $5+ dollar range these days. Cheap piece of mind in my opinion. It's nice to have something with two year old gas that starts on the first pull. I put 1 oz of marine formula stabil in each 5 gallon can before I fill up.

1 pointOn my 95 Chevy, I have a cb mounted on the top headliner where the windshield and roof meet. As for the antenna, I have the mount on the side of my toolbox, and when not in use I keep the 4’ antenna off, but if I ever wanted to I just screw it on the mount. Cobra 29ltd cb and firestick antenna.

1 pointThis belt works great on my 310-8. I don't know if the 520 requires the 83 1/2 ", but the belts from TSC are returnable for a 100% refund.

1 pointEric that is not a bad price for what you’re getting. I am getting ready to make a N/H run my self.

1 pointAround here we have R90, recreational fuel, boats, motorcycles, lawn mowers etc, 90 octane. I add standard sta-bil to mine to help preserve the octane a bit longer I've found it runs better than not after it's set for a while.

1 pointThat was supposed to be part of a Dr Seussian rhyme like what Sylvan did. I wasn’t commenting on emissions. I’d go back and try to fit something in about cheaper gas but that doesn’t seem to flow as well in the context of the rest of the rhyme.

1 point754 is kind of a rare tractor and a collector's item because of the reason stated. There wasn't very many made. Most people may not know about them but a 754 is a real WH factory tractor which is basically an 854 with a 7hp engine
-
1 pointThe trailer appears like it's twisted from the gross overload of weight in this pic! They should've shoveled all the gravel into the new trailer and then loaded that first trailer on it too to gross overload that one. Let the neighbor 1/2 mile down the road deal with them! lol

1 pointGot the M37 engine block back from the machine shop. Hot tanked, magnafluxed, line honed, bored .020", new modern hardened exhaust valve seat inserts installed, valve guides checked (still within new specs), new camshaft bearings installed, block decked .040" to produce about .022" quench (piston height above deck, which is recommended for the Ricardo-type combustion chambers), three-angle valve job using my new valves, including 21-4n stainless exhaust valves. I'll be doing the assembly work myself. They also hot tanked, magnafluxed, and milled the head...just enough to get it nice and flat. I had them resurface the flywheel, which was in excellent condition except for some surface rust. The shop also did a bunch of rod and crankshaft work for me. However, I am currently reconsidering my approach (possible upgrade) for the rods and crankshaft. More on that later. Also received more parts for rebuilding the transmission. I think I now have all that I need to proceed with that task. It's been so dry here lately that the lawn has stopped growing and our Wheel Horse and its blue New Holland twin are gathering dust for the moment. Even though our well has never gone dry, I don't want to jinx it by watering the lawn, so for the time being, 'brown is beautiful.'

1 pointAre you telling me that the anti-petroleum "I'm from the Government and I'm here to help you" crowd is showing favoritism to the corn farmers even though it ended up driving up gas prices? Say it isn't so.

1 pointOn some of my tractors I sit on the side of the seat and swing my leg over the steering wheel. Most know I'm vertically challenged

1 point@hotajax No, I usually just step over the shifter, on to the right or left foot board and sit down on the seat.

1 pointI think no matter what, you need two antennas just for the cool factor. Even if only one is hooked up, two will look cooler!
-
1 pointHere are some photos from the show. On our third day there and still probably only made it through half of the displays, vendors and swap meet area. Picked up a really straight hood for $5.00 in the consignment barn!

1 pointIf there is a major truck stop over there on I95, you might want to check it out. I have seen things at truck stops that might not be found elsewhere.

1 pointPricey maybe..but how many originals are out there for sale? How many have been restored (ruined) by a rookie with a rattle can, how many have cut hoods to accomadate a Predator motor etc. Its genuinely rare if you ask me.
-
1 pointMany probables here. I would check the fuel delivery system from the fuel cap vent, to the screen in the tank shutoff valve, to old deteriorating fuel lines to a weak fuel pump, to a dirty or maladjusted carburetor. I would clean and re-gap the points, and replace the condenser. Replace the spark plug and ignition wire. It could be any of the above. I don't think that the weight would be the issue. I have pulled me (235lb) and trailers full of stone with an 8 hp.

0 pointsJust saw on Facebook that the buyer was asking if a predator angine would be a good engine to put in it instead of getting the original one running
