I kicked her out of the shop. I’m waiting on a new Agco muffler and new orange canopy canvases. She’s the youngest of the fleet…she and the 7020 will hit the big 45 in a couple days. I consider myself really lucky to have found her 6 years ago with only 1969 hours. It’s been a pleasure raking tedding and occasionally hauling a few loads with her. She now has 2300 plus and I try hard to make them all look like they did in their glory days.  The next victim is the 55 WD45 WFE fps. May you all have a safe holiday weekend.

Nice looking tractor. I really wish mine were cleaned up & repainted. But I'm not good at removing dings & dents from previous owners. So I haven't tried repainting anything in years except with a 4" paint brush. I also wish everyone a happy holiday season. ------------- AC 200, CAH, AC185D bareback, AC 180D bareback, D17 III, WF.

| Why are you getting a new muffler? The one on there looks pretty good, might be cheaper to have it ceramic coated. |

This muffler was an aftermarket and it will not slide down onto the exhaust pipe correctly. I would have to slit it open and add a piece and weld it shut and I’m not going to do that. I have a brand new one from Agco coming. ------------- Blue Skies and Tail Winds Dana |
