JCM 9,991 #2901 Posted March 9 They have been in the garage for 4 years. 418 is getting a make over this year. Body shop is lined up for April. I'm on the list. They are always too busy. Not a bad thing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky-(Admin) 21,863 #2905 Posted March 22 Finished hauling the last of the wood today. 308-8 did it’s part as usual, but I also broke out the 857 from its long winter nap. 1 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainelyWheelhorse 924 #2906 Posted March 22 The 312 is done for now, never mind the mountain of stuff behind it and the 308.😁 My side shot contribution for this week. 3 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 9,374 #2907 Posted March 23 Put the 417-A snowblower tractor away, because I’m pretty sure I won’t be needing it until next year. I fully serviced it in the early winter, but never got to use it. The most snow we got was around four inches so I handled it with the 418-C. Had to shuffle some tractors around so I figured “Hey it’s Side Shot Saturday!” I did a little sweeping with the C-141, I live on a dirt road so I swept the dirt off the driveway aprons. 1 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 64,378 #2908 Posted March 23 Here’s a few. I’m in the process of jockeying around tractors getting ready for plow day. I have maintenance lists to complete on the house machines. I’m getting the Senior out this year instead of Jackie the lever steer for now. Jackie has a new plow, if I manage to have the time for set up. It’s big, maybe too big. 3 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

c-series don 9,374 #2914 Posted March 23 @WHX?? That’s the lever that came with it, I got it as NOS from @stevebo back in the fall. I must say that ergonomically it’s very nice, but I’m not sure if I like the look of it? All you old farts 😂😂 would probably love it🤣 Actually I’m not too far behind some of you. I’ll be double nickels on the Friday of the Big Show. So feel free to bring a cake, sing Happy Birthday or just plain ole presents 🎁🤣🤣🤣 3 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 64,378 #2917 Posted March 23 Massive plow alert! This came from a friend of @Blasterdad’s. I know it’s green, but I can’t bring myself to paint over it right now. 2 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 64,378 #2922 Posted March 23 I stripped some weight from this massive plow. It’s still super heavy, I’m sure it’ll wear me out before it gets tired. 6 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
