There's nothing like Turing that key and hearing the old motor huff and puff. These little things sound real neat when idoled low. And yes the 875 is coming to the big show this year. No matter how many times you go to the show, it never gets old! 17 minutes ago, squonk said: I'm so busy at the show running around at the show I hardly get to sit except for the bus stop! And squonk, I'm sure you would've found a ride! . Lots of nice people down at the show. Last year was my first, and after that I knew the big show had to be a yearly visit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheelin'theSky 57 #13 Posted February 22, 2016 It's was nice to have a little break in the cold here in the northeast over the weekend. Always amazes me how these old tractors just fire up as long as they are even just slightly cared for. They just don't build them like they used to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tractors these days are built of fiberglass, plastic, and aluminum. Back then they were built well with all metal and steel. Old ones will last you forever, new one would last you 4 years if that 36 minutes ago, JERSEYHAWG / Glenn said: pretty soom we will be mowing the grass. good exercise run for the ponys.
