"You meet the nicest people on a Wheel Horse" sorry not sorry Honda !!

Morning,

Countdown to show is on!!

Yesterday I got a FB message for an ad of mine that had been up for a year.

Gentleman inquired about a 42" plow, weights and chains and would I pull it off the tractor in ad. 

He made a good $$$ offer and I said sure...

Then he shows up and is looking around and asked about a 10 cu ft cart I had and would I sell it. Again we came up with a fair price to both of us and off it went---except that he was going to tow it home behind his Subaru. 

I asked where he lived and hes less than 2 miles away.

I told him Id throw it in my pickup and drop it off. Got to his house and its a nice little ranch he just bought and has a nice rough sawn lumber workshop out back.

He then invites me in and shows me the Charger 10 hes working on. Says he owned it then sold it when he moved away then found it wrecked / bought it back when he returned.

Long story longer it got a Predator 13 conversion as original motor was too tired / burning lots of oil. 

I got him some good used parts for the original snow blow and 36" gear drive mow deck.

Plus now hes interested in my C120 auto as a pure mowing machine and leaving his Charger as a snow plow, snow blow, yard tow rig.

His name is Don and he's in his mid 60s... ex machine shop guy. I told him about here and the show. Plus about redoyourhorse--he wants decals

Hopefully he joins... just a super nice guy.

It’s great learning about tractor friends nearby! Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one around here

I think that’s the shop of the new neighbor buddy?
