Kungfil 49 #1 Posted February 27, 2016 Wanted to introduce my WHs Found the '73 8 4 in a guys basement in Sioux City...doesn't run and in lot's of pieces. He says he couldn't get a spark. Gonna work on her and get her started. The other two came home last night from a journey to Minneapolis area. Front is a D200 that runs well. Bought it from a young man who has been working with it...nice kid, I applaud ambitious youth. He built the weight rack on the back that you just fill with concrete blocks. When full it holds 300ish pounds. Another nice surprise was a remote controlled wench he installed on the front. The rear is a C160 that came with all the original manuals, a tiller, a 42"ish deck and a snowblower. It's a little owly, but runs and works. They all need some work, but my son and I got up this morning and went out on the property to break stuff with em...had a blast. I got the bug and these things are just way too cool! 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We wanna be an equal opppertunity tractor family here... So the story goes !!!! lololol The trailer actually worked out pretty slick. I'm a commercial paint/flooring contractor and we rent regularly from sunbelt. We drove trailersless to minneapolis from omaha, picked up a trailer from sunbelt minneapolis that they didn't mind losing from their inventory loaded up and hauled back to omaha. Omaha sunbelt which is newly established will now have a trailer addition to their inventory....win win for everybody. The green is their corporate color...sorry was nothing I could do about that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
