Teddy da Bear 11 #34 Posted November 4, 2008 Great tractor......looks brand new! I would come too for a meet and greet. Maybe you could consider the time between Xmas and New Year? Some folks have that time off from work and would be more likely to come? Just my 2 cents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Butch 194 #38 Posted November 6, 2008 After coming back time after time to look at this thing did I happen to notice a swivel seat? Does this thing even have a swivel seat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whlpny 203 #39 Posted November 8, 2008 Guys thanks again for all the compliments I didn't think it would generate this much attention but it sure makes me feel good! I will surely miss something in trying to reply to all these posts so I'll just hit a couple and if I missed you don't feel put out! As I said earlier- I would love to have some people over , but my work is gaining extreme momentum and weekends off are not going to happen for sometime. Sorry Christmas is family time- my wife is very patient with my hobby as alot of you know- but Christmas is a time with her and the kids and I'm not even going to think about crossing that line! The front hyd line connections will be covered and finished off at a time when the front cyl/lift mount is finished. Nope- the seat Does not swivel- but does tilt. Nick- no dirty stuff now till after PA - I did play with it before paint though to see what it can do. Its by far more flexible than the old D-200 was - it can get into some interesting positions on a dirt pile! And following the last comment - PA in 09 - DEFINATLEY!!!!

BPjunk 184 #41 Posted November 8, 2008 Bob, I liked the way you were able to have the same conture of the rear fenders for the front fenders ..... it makes the tractor look profesional. Wild Bill in Richmond, Va. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
