I passed. I've already got one. I know the guy who DID buy it for that. [Reply]  [No Email]

The made so darned many of those,unless it has a wide front,is a stardard or is the real early unstyled,there's one in every fencerow. Mine's been sitting in the corner of the toolshed for two or three years. I don't know why,but I just can't fall in love with that tractor. [Reply]  [No Email]

But it seems unless I can get the pair of them for like $500 bucks it"s not worth it. [Reply]  [No Email]

I spent many hours on it with 3 12 inch bottoms or an 8 ft Oliver disk as well a pulling a 620 baler and a 422 combine. Less than perfect without the lpto thought. Great tractor. The 70 row crop last nebraska test pulled more than the first 77 Nebraska test. The 70 standard on steel pulled 90 percent of its weight in first gear, which may be a record at Nebraska? Mine is now my rack platform tractor for moving stuff, cutting lumber, and a moving tool bench. [Reply]  [No Email]
