mailman 1 #1 Posted May 12, 2008 I just had two tractors delivered to make my Classic 315 happy with a little company. And, on top of that, I got to meet one of our members too! I'll try and make this story short. A couple weeks back I bid on a B-80 in New York. I won it for 76 bucks. I honestly didn't think I would. Ok, it ain't the prettiest horse in the field, but it's running. Then Eldon goes and lists a pretty clean looking C-100. Well, since I didn't think I'd get the B-80 and the C-100 was a heck of lot nicer looking, I told Eldon I'd take her. Well Karl offers to get it back to his place for me and things look good. Then the guy I win the B-80 from says he can get the tractor to Karls place and then, lo and behold, Mike says he can get both back to me in Connecticut! Unbelievable! Well thats exactly what he did just about an hour ago. Here's some pics. Mike about to unload tractors. Backing down the B-80 Parking the C-100 I pulled the pillowcase off the seat. not sure why the guy had it on there. I'll be looking for a new seat soon. Both tractors will keep me busy tinkering and making them run and look like they should. Great to meet Mike and his daughter. Real nice guy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kj4kicks 154 #5 Posted May 13, 2008 Congrats on a 2-fer kind of day. The C100/Trailer/Mike combo looks very familiar. Guess he was scared to bring his daughter along on Saturday for the pick-up. Hope you enjoy the new rides ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
