Well if that the case I’ll call dibs on that C-twin and send @WHX24 a green one. It’ll fit right in with the 30-40 or more he’s got now.

squonk 41,118 #31 Posted April 19, 2021 2 hours ago, WHX24 said: So the story goes like this. I come in around 6-630 last night from chores, sit down to board and my wife says somethin about Tom on FB and a load of tractors and that Brett Esse of the Portage show was out lookin for Cases when he picked up a load of horses from some collector up by Wausau somewhere. So Tom commented something about some '67s on it and I should take a look. Next thing I know she PMs our address to him, hands me a wad of horse cash and says I'm goin to bed! Sure enough about 8:30 he pulls in and we commenced to looking things over. I made him an offer he couldn't refuse as he had no place to go with the load. . He wants to flip them right away. Bet he's lucky to have made a Benny on the load. The hydros came off slow as they wouldn't push and too dark to find tow valves. He said the seller set them on the trailer with a skid steer and since @pullstart doesn't have my FEL done yet.... Gear jammers on the front rolled right off. Finally about 10 we got them all off but then I had to give him a tour of the herd and show him the flame and BS about the up coming Portage show. Some more pics of last nite's "chores" Wife hands him money, other guys find him horses. Must be nice. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheel Horse 3D 3,795 #35 Posted April 19, 2021 Obviously the secret is to accumulate as many Horses as one can....Its like gravity, the more mass there is, the more other objects,(In this case horses) are attracted. Since WHX24 (AND not to mention those nearby) constitute basically a big friggin' black hole of Horse gravity, no Horse within hundreds of miles can escape! They just gravitate that way till they arrive! 1 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
