What would you have done?

Must have scared him off, he never did come get that No.70 IHC 4 bottom plow. ;0)

First let me say thanks for all the moral support from y'all. It made me feel better after dealing with the grinder guy. Now, back to that fool plow! You didn't scare me off, the plow did! I had no truck, just a Buick. I had no trailer except a 4x8 utility trailer built from an early 1960's Falcon axle. I went to a Sheridan auction and darned if there wasn't the cutest little JD four bottom sittin there. I couldn't resist bidding and I got stuck with it. Got a guy to drop it in the trailer (wedged is more like it) with a loader and thought the tires were going to blow out. Close to 50 miles home and the trailer came off the ball first time about 20 miles into the drive. Chains held and I was able to lift it back on the car. Came off again within a mile, this time the chains busted and the trailer chased the Buick about 30 feet before I outran it and it careened into about a six inch deep monster of a mudhole. I dragged it out of the mud and decided I better use a bigger ball if I wanted to keep my trailer. Didn't give a rip about that plow anymore. After I changed the ball things were OK but I stayed on the back roads and took it slow. One mile from home she came off again in the middle of a turn. I saw that trailer go across the road heading for a 30 foot drop off on the far side. I had time to pull over and look back just in time to see it crash into a utility pole and stop dead. That is where I left it. Later I went back with a tractor and chains and pulled it out and drug it home. Was months before I even looked at it again and when I took it out of the trailer it tore a foot long gash in the bottom. That was the last time I even looked at a plow for sale.
I should have given you a holler, sorry. You shoot me the info on that IH plow and I will get back to you on it one way or t'other. I think I still have the pics.
