WHX?? 55,079 #25453 Posted February 22 (edited) Ok on to much much more serious business ... 875 out the shop and this girl follows it in. 875 didn't need a damn thing 'cept for a bath. Well since wash equipment is put away for at least another month so she just got a drool bath. Another original ... you resto guys can take a hike. Needs a bath too but more important some head gasket leakage? More on that in tractors. Edited February 22 by WHX?? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sqrlgtr 2,180 #25454 Posted February 22 Man, I envy you fellers that are in them target rich areas. We just don't get that many opportunities around here, especially on any S/G models. I did get lucky the other day on the 520h and 312-8 and the assortment of equipment. really couldn't afford all of them, but they would not separate. I just couldn't pass on it since it was just a 45min drive to pick up. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 24,643 #25458 Posted February 23 Settled on a Gloss Smoke Gray for the lower/wider stripe. If you’re wondering how I came up with this color decision…well it was in stock in my paint cabinet! Looks very different depending on the lighting. Last picture is what I started with. 2 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan 312-8 459 #25466 Posted Saturday at 11:38 PM Rescued an orphaned snowplow today, guy threw in a set of tire chains (white bucket) as well. Was his father’s before he passed, his mom sold the tractor years ago, believed to be a 312-8, and the plow just collected dust. Today was the first time I drove since January 19th, day of my rotator cuff surgery, felt good to be back in the saddle. 6 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 19,924 #25472 Posted 9 hours ago I noticed this morning walking to the mailbox that there was a lot of gravel in the yard by the road. We had a lot of small storms this winter and the Twp outdid itself with stone. Sweepster will be coming out early this year. My shoulder and rakes do not get along. Ed you need one and your cab would be a good thing. A face full of snow from the blower is one thing a face full of gravel when the wind picks up is another...Takes me multiple days waiting for the right wind conditions... 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep used to have to rent a sweeper every year. Either that or leave the gravel on the grass, paint it green and call it a lawn. One of the reasons I decided to black top. Hey @Achto whatever happened to that sweeper you had? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
