whfan74 2,015 #1 Posted August 11, 2016 Yesterday was a long, hot, humid day.......but fun to say the least. I have tried my best to cut my herd down but have found that it is much harder than I anticipated. Due to my sickness, I have moved a few machines over to my dads house, and then I moved some over to my moms house, and now I brought some more home and am scratching my head. I know many of you folks would be happy to lend a hand but I think I will figure it all out! Here is the "mess!" Oh and yes.....it did take 2 trailers to get this home. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clueless 2,898 #2 Posted August 11, 2016 Scott, I was starting to be a little concerned about you. Not a Mod. anymore, last M@G, and selling off some of your heard. But then this, your selling 3, and bought at least 5 more, Looks like it's all good. Chris. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,025 #9 Posted August 11, 2016 I don't think you have a sickness . You are planning for the future. On the days when you have finished your chores and nothing on TV you can inventory all the pieces and figure out how many tractors you can build. My family motto is " never throw away anything you will need it tomorrow". 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The smile on my 7 year olds face yesterday was priceless! He was enjoying the car ride, loading the goodies, and heading home as much as I did. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,034 #13 Posted August 11, 2016 Yeah that is a sickness.... I thought you were cutting down too. Good to see you still have the passion to make a haul like that. I for one would have to spread the love if I were to haul that many. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good to see you still have the passion to make a haul like that. I for one would have to spread the love if I were to haul that many. The deal that was made was all or nothing. I didn't want all of it but hopefully I can recoup some of my investment over time. The 633, 701, and both 603's fired right up. I enjoyed taking them for a spin last night. Drug the C-120 out last night and much to my surprise,it fired right off with some fresh gas. Now the parts will be a big undertaking......hopefully things can find a new home at the Mentone swap meet! Edited August 12, 2016 by whfan74 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 4,874 #17 Posted August 12, 2016 Scott you hit the jack pot the mother load. Great collection of parts and tractors. I am sure in time you can find buyers for every thing. You can always post here to help on the load of parts. Enjoy the project. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,337 #18 Posted August 12, 2016 That's a great haul, Scott. And I spy a 603 there also. Sort of an oddball if I remember my Horse 101 correctly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdleach 525 #19 Posted August 12, 2016 IMPRESSIVE!!! Congrats on acquisitions, and glad to hear you will be at Mentone. Planning on going this year, a first time for me.
