Went to the show today, got there early, lots of stuff for sale, bought a cool pair of nos 6-12 tires.... must have orginally been for a small car but, real nice looking turf tread and WHITE WALLS! I've already installed them on a tractor

And of course my brother struck a deal on another cool tratcor.... :thumbs:

I went Saturday morning and it seemed like the show was the biggest it has ever been. The venders area has definitly grown. I scored some good deals on tires/rims right away! One was a pair of 23x10.50x12's on silver rims with no drycracking at all. I figured $50 in my head but when I asked the seller what he wanted he said $20 for the pair!! No brainer .

Bumped into about 6 Redsquare guys and probably walked past a few more that I wouldnt recognize. Saw Vinnie, Matt, Jeff, Russ, Jason, Bill( didnt talk to Bill as he was working the pulling track). As always there are lots of Cub's there but the amount of Wheel Horse's and Wheel Horse parts was up for sure. One guy even had a 701 starter/gen belt guard. I had it in my hands and he said " You know what that is son?"(I'm 45 years old ) and I replied "Its a 701 starter/gen belt guard for the double pulley setup". I think he was impressed that a whipper-snapper like me had the right answer!

So it was a great show and I got in and out before the rain......priceless !
