I have been driving by by a farm equipment dealer who has a F-20 now for about a year and half. About 8 months ago it disappeared and I thought it sold. To my surprise about a month and a half ago it reappaered like magic in the same spot. I never bothered to call or stop and see how much they wanted for it. The reason for that was that it is totally restored. New paint, new front rubber as the rear is on steel. It looks perfect. So I called today and just thought I would find out what kind of rediculous price they have on it. To my surprise they said $1200.00, which means I can probably get it for $1000.00 delivered. After I became speechless I said thank you and hung up. I can't believe it. I have driving past this bargain for a year and a half. Needless to say I have bought two other Farmall's a Cub and a H in the last year and a half and that took a lot of convincing of my wife. She says since I am only 21 why do I need so many tractors? So tonight at supper I casually brought it up and didn't even hint about getting it and low and behold she said if I wanted I can go get it. Once again after becoming speechless, I didn't know what to say. I guess the moral of the story is don't sit back and let a good bargain go. And it also helps if you find a tractor that your wife thinks is "cool". Bill
