fireman 1,022 #51 Posted September 2, 2015 Also looking to sell, which is from my research, a 1948 Montgomery Wards/Simplicity Hoe-Trac. Real neat piece of history. Runs pretty good. Smokes a little at start up up but clears out. Has wheel weights on the inboard of the rims and comes with the plow. I believe the tires to be original. Have literature and manual downloaded for it. Show it or use it. Looking for $150. I can also bring this to Steve's if anyone is interested in it. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,351 #54 Posted September 13, 2015 All-If anyone who is coming has a long bar chainsaw could you please bring it? I have a tree stump that I need to have cut behind the barn in order to be able to drive around back. It is exposed and clean around the base so cutting it will be easy access. Thanks !!

DTOM 124 #57 Posted September 13, 2015 I have you covered. Wheeling the 54" is kind of scary, i'll bring the 36" instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,351 #65 Posted September 17, 2015 Update on the meet and greet...1- Weather forecast looks awesome !!2- I will have soft drinks and also a keg of adult beverage. 3- For the food I will have hot dogs, hamburgers and chips. The plan for cooking will be as follows: I will have the grill down near the barn and instead of trying to cook all at once and have people not eat everyone can cook your own when you are hungry. I will have plates etc. If you would like to bring something else to grill feel free like a steak etc. 4- If you have a thatcher or aerator, please bring them. 5- If you have something you are looking to sell feel free to bring it I am expecting a decent turn out Saturday. Only rule on stuff for sale is that if you do not sell it you need to drag it home. Please don't leave it here. I will be outside by 8:00am. Out of respect for the neighbors I would like to keep the noise level of the tractors down until after 9 please. Most people are coming after 10 however feel free to come earlier. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,351 #67 Posted September 17, 2015 I have a seeder but thanks for the offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,351 #68 Posted September 18, 2015 All-Just a reminder for everyone coming to bring as many tractors as you want and it is always good to bring parts and attachments to sell or barter. I have one spot on the lawn that I will be seeding today and it will have hay over it. Other than that area feel free to ride anywhere in the yard you would like. Should be a great time tomorrow!

fireman 1,022 #69 Posted September 18, 2015 I'm giving away what looks to be a pile of junk but it's actually pretty much a complete tractor minus the engine. It is/was a 1977 C-160. It's available at Steve's but you must take everything in the photo and it has to leave his property at the end of the Meet&Greet tomorrow. First come, first serve.If you chime in here and say you want it, then it's yours, but again it has to leave his property tomorrow 9-19-2015! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,351 #71 Posted September 18, 2015 I am pretty much all set. For those of you who asked "what can I bring" I could use ICE. I could also use coffee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
