Where did it come from?

[ACman 7,505]

So this weekend my cuz took some of the herd to a pole barn he can use in exchange for grounds maintenance . He went to the barn loaded the C120/160 frackinhorse then come by my barn grabbed the Commando8 . He dropped off the C120 at his dads and then took the Commando8 to or mechanic friend. My cousin and friend went back over to the barn to grab something and when he opened the door this was in there  ? Now mind you he was only gone for a half hour .

 

 

Well I’ll after a while we figured it out . The high school football team was doing a scrap drive and the dumpsters were located behind the old middle school where the barn is also located across the parking lot. The coach had seen my cousin with the trailer loading and moving tractors around. Five minutes after he left a guy showed up with this for the scrap drive. Told them it just quit running last year and wasn’t going to mess with it. So after the guy left the coach rolled it across the parking lot and put it in the barn . When the coach was telling my cousin this he said just make a small donation to the team . My cousin responded right back and said you know all that scrap your getting at my cousins most of it was from my jobs . Four trucks worth. Cleaned up my yard   ! So in the end we all won .   Is your addiction bad when the whole town knows you collect and you have people just drop you off tractors or call you about a tractor they have . Two weeks ago we picked up a 520H for under $200 . The guy called out of the blue and said please come get it . I’ll get pictures of it after it gets done doing yard cleanup chores at my cousins FIL house. Yes it’s a running mowing no smoking tractor too .

Word gets around doesn't it?  Especially in smaller towns. 

 

I was contacted by a friend of mine this past weekend, his mother has her deceased husband's 312-8 she's going to sell.  I don't know how he knew I liked .  I reckon he musta heard it from someone.

I made offer.  Not heard back yet.  Front of hood is in bad shape due to an accident.

Wow that’s actually in good condition. Just needs some hood work and possibly some floor mats and that look old like it will be a great little worker.
