I'll be there with a friend. We'll arrive later saturday, I told Joel I'd be there by 6. Now let's HOPE I make it!

We'll be back sunday morning for a while too, unless our plans get changed.

I'll be there with my father and maybe a member of the next WH generation in tow. The V18 is being contrary and ate a starter 2 days ago. So with a contractor working to repair some storm damage in my house and GARAGE She is a lost cause for this one. I have to get the house put back togethor for a birthday party Sun anyhow, so no shop time for me this week Oh well it will be great to see everyone and look at the other horses. Thats the whole point in going any way isn't it?

Now actually, that is about the only reason I'm coming! :horseplay:

Dad and I might drive over to take a look around the show. Not sure if I'll drag the Load Ranger over. Never did finish the 3pt or repaint the tractor so I could put on the decals. I could just wash off the worst of the dirt and take it along.

Anyone taking stuff in to sell?

[Curmudgeon 28]

What do you need?

Actually, I'm just hoping to get everything on that's pre-sold. It was tight before, but it's gotten tighter. I think it'll fit though, just gotta go vertical.

Leaving soon, won't be back until after the show!!!

[Nick 13]

Actually I thought about digging around the stuff to see if I have something that someone else might want more than I do.

Edit:

Just thought of this. The 520-Lxi I used last winter is my brothers and might be selling it. The 520 Lxi has power steering and water cooled 20hp Kawasaki engine. Tractor only has around 250 hours, all used with a salt spreader and snow thrower at an apartment complex in Michigan so it has Michigan rust not Ohio. No attachments with it and price is $700 OBO. The water cooled Kaw engine should be worth that. Didnt plan to haul it over but I can if someone wants to see it. Planning to be around Saturday morning for a while.

Video I posted last winter of V plow testing with the 520 last year.

Nick,

Logistically it would be tough for me to work this out since I 'm not able to go to Mentone, but I'd be interested in that machine.

i sent you a PM...

Dale I hate to tell you but thats not the reason :banghead:

[Nick 13]

Dale, I rarely remember names and faces. Now what gets me is when someone like wild Bill walks up and not only knows my name but also the name of the little village I live in. :banghead:

Mr. Wild Bill (Not Hickok) is different. Not only does he know everyone, but EVERYONE knows him!

I prefer to be a shadow in the crowd........

But I met a **** and Vic, and now don't remember who was the father and who was the son. Much less who the holy ghost may have been. Alas, there is also a very active Nick on this forum.

Now who the blazes was it I was supposed to email about these tractors and parts?????

Guess I'll just start sending letters until someone answers with something besides, "Huh?"
