Sibling 856's

First

Hope this works. Not pretty, well only to me. :thumbs:

They look GREAT to me, Jim. (you are Jim, right? )

If you make them too shiny then you'll never want to USE them. (which is more fun than just lookin' at them!)

Don' t forget to post the pictures of them in the photo gallery. (there's already a 1966 856 there -- you can just hit "reply" and post them after it)

This link will get you there quick:

They look good to me too. No thing wrong with workers :thumbs:

I thought about removing the lights on the first. I did'nt add them myself. But they have sort of grown on me. I kinda like them now. Plus they really work well.

If your 856's are anything like the 857 I used to have, the WHOLE tractor should work well.

I don't see any snow though ...... did you get to push anything with it yet? :thumbs:

Actually, It does'nt work all that well in the snow. It is how I got it. It needs the tire chains with closer links. Maybe .Or more weight. It is not my frontline snow tool. I guess if the blade were not rusty it would throw the snow better than what it does. Gotta work on that this summer.

Jim,

They looked good to me. And I like those lights also. I would also leave them on. :thumbs:

Nice looking twins there Jim!

Looks like you hae some other eguipment lurking back there in the corner too.

A hydro Wheel Horse & maybe a Case or IR?

I agree with everyone else...workers are funner than show queens...but it's nice to have both. :thumbs:

[hoosier 1]

Stephen, A Case Ing. 444 and a 1076. I have examples of most every brand. The horses are my favorite. I am though an equal opportunity tractor collector. I got alot of other stuff.

[Rollerman 290]

Nothing wrong with a little color Jim....I have an AC Big Ten & was in the market for a Case 185/195 till my two Ponds came along.

Will see what this season brings.

I do like both your 856's...but that one with the ags deffinatley stands out!

[T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,350]

Stephen,

I also like the look of that one - must be the ags on it.

[Rollerman 290]

Just looks mean & ready for business.

Maybe it's the original seat too?

Don't see that many on the older tractors that were saved by the PO's.

Normally the seat pading breaks down the cover rips & a replacement is put on.

[combatmp29r 27]

Yeah I agree about the seats. Heck seems like most guys are putting ald sears seats on them like the one I just got and the two TT picked up awhile back. The original seats are getting hard to come by.

The one with the Ags does look tough. :thumbs:

[TT-(Moderator) 1,129]

Their big brothers look kinda tough too, don't they ???????

[combatmp29r 27]

I don't know Terry I'm not seeing it.

Seriousely yes they do. I think most tractors look tough with a set of ags on them. Now I said most not all. :thumbs:
