kasey54 305 #1 Posted October 21, 2019 Good evening all. Just spent a couple hours with Red Square member Historic Horse. Looked at his treasures, We struck a deal, I went and came back with a trailer, he busted his hump in my absence and made a path for me and my truck/trailer right back to his shed and the goodies. We backed the 417 on my trailer (he did ,I pushed ), the rain made my planked deck as slimy as deer guts on a door knob. Then I found a couple cool ones in the back of my of my rig and we popped a couple.The rotto tiller was next, and then the plow. I think we cracked a couple more open then. The rain got no worse than annoying. Strapped the old girl down, and he came out with the wheel horse spreader,NICE! Into the truck bed with that and three suit case weights . That delighted me, I've been watching for some of them. Then came the rototiller mule, belt and helper spring. I think at this point we needed to get out of the lower twenty and back to his garage. However the tail gate had to be closed, and the trailer gate/ramp as well. Uh oh, that cost me another cold one! Then a final check in the shed and he asked me if I wanted what appeared to be a home made cultivator frame / hitch with no tines. I said sure why not. Then up to the garage to get a bag of tiller accessories he had.Wow! He comes out with the coulter wheel and hardware he didn't know he had for the plow. Then out with another box off goodies he comes. A slot hitch, a sleeve hitch, and pin, New tiller lift chain brand new hardware. A lift cable, clevis,s and more. One more trip, a large wooden box,and in it 8 brand new tines for the home made cultivator and shafts. I.m forgetting stuff I'm sure. You get the idea. Two happy guys with a great deal each. No better way to enjow a sunday afternoon. 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
