Jake Kuhn 1,554 #1 Posted March 25, 2012 Hi Everyone,well after about 6 months of work the JD 60 is basically done. I am still debating whether or not to put a stack on it,if I do it will be like the one on the 401. Well Here are some pictures.

rmaynard 15,417 #11 Posted March 25, 2012 I don't care what make it is, you have to be given a tremendous amount of credit for the job you did. Now I am sure that you had a wee bit of help from Dad, but just the fact that a 12 year old is doing something other than sitting in front of a video game is awesome. Great job. :thumbs: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, I haveta practically beat my two to get them away from the computer/video game. Great job Jake. That's a nice looking tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
