bell 11 #1 Posted November 2, 2009 Well, I had a GREAT weekend of buying and trading tractors. My buddy,that I got the RJ-58 from, brought me the A50 thingy I bought from him... (It now lives at Devin's (fritz's) house ) I met a guy a couple weeks ago (at Trade Days)... he told me that he had a old WH that he'd sell me. I went to check it out and brought it home. A 753! The engine is totally locked up and she's a little rough, but I've seen worse. (check out the cool barbed-wire pinstriping... lol) Devin came over today and left with the B-80, the 1075, the 606, the A-50 and a dump cart... Here's what I ended up with. A 877 for Courtney. We were going to fix up the 1075, but it just needed too much work. The 877 runs GREAT and the Hydro is STRONG... Plus, the parking brake lever is MUCH easier for her to reach on this one. And my favorite of all... the RJ-35. Devin just bought it, but QUICKLY decided that he didn't want to keep it. He let me drive it, and I wasn't too sure if I wanted it. Now that I know how to operate it, I think it will be GREAT! (I was trying to "clutch" with the brake pedal, and it wasn't working out too well... lol) I'm going to start another thread with some better pics of it, but here it is!

Sarge 3,465 #4 Posted November 2, 2009 That pic will do it , just wondered about the park brake handle. Seen one pic of an 877 that had the "old style" handle low down on the side of the frame like my 876. Just wondered if it was odd or altered... Sarge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
