I have a call into a buddy of mine. He is a old farm boy and comes across riders all the time. I helped him put a v-6 in one a few summers ago for the tractor pulls down in BG as a cruiser to get around then blow up when he was done with it :ROTFL:

Cool thanks

I'm busting my butt and head here trying to find 2009 tax papers for the loan company. I have every year back to 1986, but 2009 is MIA :banghead:

WTH did I do with it.
Also want to know where all of the money went that I have made over the years :banghead:

Well bad news. He called me and is no longer doing too much of anything since he broke his back :shock:

Fell off his barn roof this winter and is quite lucky to be alive, he laid outside in January for for almost 2 days before his wife got home and found him out cold, no pun intended. He just got out of the hospital on 3/1 :shock:

So I guess it was atleast good to hear from him even though his speach is rather slurred from the pain meds he is on.
I will keep my eyes peeled for ya however, he isn't the only fellow I know plus I see them every now and again around here.

Tom I know a guy right across the state line that buys sells and collects john deere garden tractors. He's the one that had the original plow setup for my 1966 110.

He has a 317 that he thinks is sold. If not he'll let me know.

He's alway coming up with good John deere stuff.

Tom, make sure you are checking CL, deals pop up there all the time. Also check out for sale section on http://www.mytractorforum.com , there are deals on there constantly. If you don't want to sign up and see something you might like, shoot me a PM and I will give the seller your contact info since I'm a member.
You want an Old JD uh...junk :goink:

just kiddin, I'm into old Sears GT's right now. If you can find one of the 400 series i.e. 425,430,445,455, you would have you a very versatile tractor with hydro hookups. Not sure which JD's or Cubs have rear PTO, but most have 3 pts hithces for the rear you can run a stand alone tiller or even a 3 pt single blade plow. I think the 317/318's also have hydro ports on front for blade/snowblower hook ups. If you go into the garden tractor section, then the JD forum on the MTF board, plenty of info to research.

I have had a few Sears over the years all did well for mowing the lawn. Last one I bought my EX brother in law finished it off. He thought the oil needed changed ( although I had just changed it 2 weeks before) so he borrow it, drains the oil and then forgets and starts mowing his lawn :banghead:

Nice 18 horse went to mower heaven and I put a brick through his windshield :ROTFL:

I'd like the JDs since they do have 3 point hitch and hydro hookups
Want a good around mower,tiller, snowplow, tow dead Jeeps, bury bodies etc
Plus I can haul it down home and do some extra mowing that needs done two - three times a year

I had found "mytractorforum " through a link on another site last night
I'll see what I can find there as well

I'm on another website :banghead:

just what I needed

Don't forget weekendfreedommachines.com.

Don't know what you're looking to spend Tom but there's an almost new one on CL for $1000 in Point Place. L110, 42" cutting deck, looks like it has the vacuum attachment.

tommudd · **Posted:** Sat Mar 26, 2011 1:44 am

Never found that one Larry but sounds like one of the newer models you buy at Lowes etc. Not quite what I'm looking for but it maybe what I have to settle for.
May just have to find a round fender to rebuild as a toy and use a push mower on the yard :mrgreen:

Bota's are great machines but most are a little more than I want to pay
Love the diesel ones though

ArcherAce · **Posted:** Sat Mar 26, 2011 8:09 am

To bad I just sold my extra round fender a few weeks ago.

Good to see you don't want a new jd. The older ones are twice the machine. My 1966 Rf is built like a tank.

tommudd · **Posted:** Sat Mar 26, 2011 11:40 pm

The newer ones are like some of the newer cars, all look the same, cheaply built and no class. Older ones just have the look and feel , I had forgot you had a couple of round fenders.

I found an original light kit for it too. As soon as it warms up I'll install it. Im also in the market for a tiller. darn little green beasts are addictive.

They all can be addicting...I have a 68 sears SS12 and my dads' Allis Chalmers HB212 that I'm going to restore. I am also looking possibly to buy a package of 3 more Sears SS14,ST12, and ST10.
I agree Tom, the box stores stamped out framed lawn tractors have no quality anymore like the old built steel!
