I just saw a report on Fox News that you struck Allis gold today. (The story was leaked to Fox by an unnamed source on the condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to report the find.)
Will you be telling us... the REST of the story?

Fox News is a pretty efficient organization, Chuck, they don't miss much. A friend of my Brother-in-law that knows the neighbor of the secretary to the sister of the aunt of the head of Fox News said that he heard if you didn't come clean on this, they were going to sue in court to subpoena you to come clean on this whole story. You better come clean, Chuck, or you could be in deep do-do. I don't know if you can make it through the No Spin Zone.

Ok, here are some pictures of the Allis Gold that GBACBfan must be talking about. This is the load from yesterday:
On there is a WD, a complete set of cultivators(all of the little stuff was in my truck), and a two bottom snap coupler plow. I unloaded that yesterday in the rain, and went back today for this load:
On here was an AC 716H, a Simplicity 7117, a horse drawn potato planter, and a Waukesha power unit. The power unit is going to a certain forum member(that may have started this mess). He knows what he paid for it, but little does he know in the fine print what my loading and transporting charges will total up to!! LOL I also picked up these set of front tires and rims:
  
Does anyone know what these came from? The bolt pattern and hole are a perfect match to the five bolt front hubs on WC/WD/WD45 and some of the D series as I took a hub with me to match them up today before I snagged them. But the tires are 5 x 15. The wheel center is cast and they are really heavy. I got a fairly good deal on all this stuff as it came from my sister's neighbor. Funniest thing is the 716H made it back in the family as after I committed to buy it, I found out today that is used to be my dad's, then he sold it to my brother in law and when he got a new mower, he sold it to his neighbor, and now his kids sold it to me. I don't know about the condition of either of the garden tractors but based on what I payed for them, I won't get hurt too bad. The WD has a cracked/repaired block but the engine may be tight as it has been sitting outside for the longest time. It mind end up being consolidated with my other WD that runs, and the best of all parts will be put on the running one. I will open it up sometime this week if it ever stops raining and see how bad it is.

Nice haul Chuck. Those front wheels would be handy when plowing with a WD or 45. I have a tator planter like that out back cept mine don't have any wood left to the tongue. The WD don't look too bad. Nice battery box too.

...and now you're looking at how to break down round balers to haul them? How much Allis gold did you find in them there hills???
Those Case wheels look pretty cool. I think Charlie's got the right idea about using them for plowing for the extra weight. The tires look GREAT!!!

The tires are brand new and still have the nubs on them. I figured if nothing else they could go on my B. I can't believe how heavy they are though. The rotobalers are in another hill, far far away. I figured I have the rest of my life to finish all these projects, the time to bring them home is now!!!

Dale, that's the funny thing about this. I was looking for a complete set of cultivators for a WD/WD45 as I had a partial set that was missing all the mounting brackets and levers that go on the tractor. I ended up buying the set from George Schultz because it was the only set that someone was selling that was actually complete. Then I get home from OH, and two weeks later I find another complete set only 1/2 hour from home. I had to bring all this stuff home as they are cleaning up the property and putting it for sale so if I didn't buy it, it was going for scrap. So now within a month I now have 2 1/2 sets of cultivators!!
