T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,315 #2 Posted March 7, 2020 Jennifer, You two have been quite busy collecting up about all the RJ and round hood WHs there are in the central midwest. How many does this make now? You may need to invest in a bigger trailer and a bigger pole barn or two. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many does this make now? You may need to invest in a bigger trailer and a bigger pole barn or two. Just four RJ’s. Lol. Sold one to @dells68. He is such a great fellow!!!😁 It’s fun and exciting! The 1961 from you we call it the Bug! David was a great guy to meet last night and look at all he had! His wife and him are very nice people! His wife does really nice shirts and things with wheel horse. If we had brought a bigger trailer we might have brought home to much if that’s possible lol... 🤪 As for a bigger barn, agreed but that cost more money and cuts into the tractor buying lol... The shed there in now isn’t ours!!! 😂 Edited March 7, 2020 by Jennifer 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,975 #7 Posted March 7, 2020 Nice haul there, Jennifer. Just one thing. I think you need to invest in some extra ratchet straps. Better than rope IMO. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like you’re just as addicted I agree with @Stormin on the straps idea! That style rope was used one time to guide the top of a maple tree when I was in the bucket. A gust came, snapped one rope and ripped the other out of the helper’s hands and the top came down over me at about 40’ in the air. Safe travels y’all! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are just so cute! My husband doesn’t listen I told Him to separate the males and the females! He always tells me he can’t tell the difference!😂 Every time we go to the barn there’s MORE!!!! 🤭 at least they don’t require feed and water! And it something that our family can enjoy working on as well as playing on! Edited March 7, 2020 by Jennifer 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m glad you guys had a safe trip @Wheelhorse Wes. Yes, that’s your new 855 tractor! We put it in the back of the truck so it’s ready for our trip to Joliet Illinois in a couple weeks to meet up with you! Do some tractor swapping and visit!

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,233 #16 Posted March 8, 2020 @Jennifer nice score on both tractors. You are going to love that 753, they are a great little machine. Out of all our Horses our little 753 is hands down the favorite of mine as well as both my boys. When I got into this hobby I told myself I wouldn't buy duplicates of any model once I had one, however we like the 753 so well I'm in the process of trying to strike a deal on another one 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 17,043 #17 Posted March 8, 2020 Sorry about Arkansas... had to drive thru it a few times back when I was with Uncle Sam. And spent a few weeks dealing with Boat people at Ft Chaffee. All I can remember is DRY Heck when you stayed at a hotel you became a member of a "private" club so you could get a damn drink. fortunately Ft Chaffee wasn't "Dry" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oilwell1415 563 #19 Posted March 9, 2020 I was tempted by that 753 when I picked up my 552. Couldn't believe the collection of tractors. I always thought if you had so many you had to build shelves to store them on it would be too many. I was wrong. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Razorback 1,032 #21 Posted March 9, 2020 You went real close to our home when you passed through Bentonville. We are only a few miles northwest of those 3 crosses.
