Flatheadpete 183 #127 Posted June 3, 2014 It's a 1950 Ford 2 door sedan. I left my wife's salon the other day and thought it would make a cool pic. And yes, the wagon is a '95 Caprice. High mileage (72k) daily driver. 3TONFUN! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,130 #130 Posted July 11, 2014 Nice... how'd the trailer do John? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shallowwatersailor 3,213 #131 Posted July 12, 2014 Nice... how'd the trailer do John? Trailer did real well. The five foot ramp was a strange on a six foot wide trailer as you had mentioned. I'm glad that I put trailer mirrors on the truck last year as that gave me a sense of how wide it was behind me. Only one !!*# DC resident on the way back while loaded decided he would squeeze between the car in front and me at 60mph. The trailer brakes helped! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fun Engineer 859 #135 Posted July 31, 2014 Hey Denny. Yep, one owner 603. Can't wait to get it home and clean her up and see if she'll start. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dclarke 4,032 #136 Posted July 31, 2014 Better post a few more pics of that one, Dave. How'd you find it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fun Engineer 859 #137 Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) I don't remember if it was Facebook or red square. It was two hours from here. Was owned since new by the same man. He passed 6 years ago and it's been in the shed ever since. Never spent a night outside. I'll post pics after I get it cleaned up. I can't remember because in the last week I've been approached by two other guys that have tractors they want to sell. I met them at our local Flywheelers show. I can't keep it all straight. I'm going to run out if money soon. I'll have to borrow some from you. ;) Edited July 31, 2014 by Fun Engineer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Kennell 38,112 #142 Posted August 12, 2014 Not a mirror shot, but looky what crawled into my ugly one horse trailer today. Any guesses on its pedigree ? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,130 #143 Posted August 12, 2014 No question Ed... it's a thoroughbred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,112 #144 Posted August 26, 2014 Picked up a tall chute for the 520 and another plow. What are the notches for on the middle section of the chute? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are the notches for on the middle section of the chute? IMG_3345.JPG Just a guess, Ed. Maybe it is to relieve the metal when forming the discharge chute, and/or to prevent it from forming cracks at the bend. Or some engineer had some wit and thought: "I'm going to put these notches in here so somebody will eventually ask the question, 'What are these here for?'." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMCIII 838 #146 Posted August 30, 2014 Well, it was not red, but it was not the color "green" that we don't talk about much either. It took my neighbor and I to get this loaded in the back of my Tahoe. Which, by the way, it did not fit all the way even with the tires removed. I had hoped to get some information about it before I took a chance to purchase it. It seems there is little info on it. There was plenty of info on it's baby brother the MC 2500, but not much on the 4800. I am guessing it was made for industrial use. I only say that becasue of the mounted hook that is centered on the machine to lift it with some type of crane or backhoe, ect. Well I took a chance. After I got it home and had a chance to look it over better, I am glad I did. It has maybe 6hrs. of total run time on it. The paint in the chutes have not even worn off. The welds are still green. It is just extremly dirty from sitting in the back of a big shed. Tomorrow it will get the pressure washer treatment and a trial run. Looking forward to fall clean up now!

RMCIII 838 #149 Posted August 31, 2014 Jim, no video yet. I did try out some simple limbs, maybe 1" or less through the shredder. Ate it like candy and asked for more. Then I asked my neighbor for a nice sized limb. He came back with a limb that was well over 3 inches. Probably close to 4 inches. I was a little cautious at first. I slowly fed the limb into the chipper chute. As the branch hit the chipper wheel, it ate the limb like it was a piece of cake..... < Not really! I did have to stop feeding the limb twice because the engine had bogged down a little. Not bad, but enough that I wanted to make sure I would not kill the engine if I kept feeding the limb. I would say it was a great purchase... Yes, videos will be coming! Rob 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
