Rick, that's just funny! Bandit the dog looks all new to me stuff over when it comes home. Mike let his four row come home with me and we will be using this one to plant corn this year if I get her up and working in time. I think there's all the repair parts in the bins to get it ready to go. ------------- 3 WD45's with power steering,G,D15 fork lift,D19, W-Speed Patrol, "A" Gleaner with a 330 corn head,"66" combine,roto-baler, and lots of Snap Coupler implements to make them work for their keep. |

| That sounds great,Don! Now it should only take you half the time to get the corn planted! LMAO! That way you'll have that much more time to piddle away or...I mean...work/play with your AC tractors! I'm ready to put in some seat time myself on the ol' 45 of mine, while doing the disking. Take care. Rick |

Rick - not a weak moment with Don. That planter just sits in the shed all the time except for a couple times I planted a tiny patch of sweet corn with it. I'd rather see it fixed up and used than sit idle. Besides, selling it helped offset the bill on the Series IV work! He also hauled home a side shield and a used 3 point adapter off my parts D17. Whenever Don gets tired of using the planter I get first chance to buy it back...knowing Don I figure that will be about when he hits 90 and I'm about 83 or so! LOL! Take lots of pictures of Don planting with it this spring after he fixes it all up! Mike

Mike, I will get some shots of the four row at work again, I think it will be up and running by planting time. Hope the Wd45 will lift it and not need weight on the front. The dog found a mouse in one of the hoppers (don't tell pitta but it's not in there now) he likes mice. lol
Thanks again Mike for the good deals you did for me.

Here's a shot of the three point hitch for the D17 Mike loaded on the trailer too.
