Drug home 2 tractors last week on the cheap!

[Hammerhead 817]

I drug home 2 tractors 2 weeks ago and got a great deal on them both! The first one is a nice Toro WH 312-8 Speed Classic, it ran and mowed last year but the guy didn't want to mess with it no more. He bought a MTD instead! It turns over and has a nice mower deck but came with the wrong seat. He was wanting $100 for it but I offered him $75.00 for it since he claimed it was in rough condition. He thought about it for a few seconds and said yes but hurry up and load it up before he changed his mind. I said I had been watching American Pickers all day and learned a trick or 2 from them guys! We got a laugh out of that and we loaded it up right away and I paid him fast! He said his buddy had an old Jacobsen for sale for $50.00 and it ran and everything. We went and looked at it and the guy started it up and the 12 hp Kohler ran good but had a blown out muffler and no drive belt. It had some parts missing on it but for $50.00 I bought it right then since it ran good. It is a Hydrostat drive too! The front tires are huge but I didn't care and we loaded it up too. Not bad for a Saturday morning haul! Now if I can get in the driveway without the wifey seeing them, it will be an even better day! Hammerhead

Great Saturday morning!

 

Did you "catch" any goodies for the wifey? Something to keep her busy while you hid your stash?

I hope that cheap Jake doesn't spoil your  collection Keith...    

my buddy had a couple horses before he brought home his first Jake...

last I knew, I had all his  stuff, and he had collected so many Jakes...

you couldn't get into the back bay of his shop.
