Gleaner G - What to do?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Have an old Gleaner G that I bought in a moment of weakness (spelled S.t.u.p.i.d). It's complete and has the 301 turbo diesel motor that runs real good (including a new turbo). Has 1 almost new drive tire , with the other about 40% It's gear drive. The tin is really pretty straight. The machine works but is a country mile from being field ready. The bad is it needs a complete overall of every sprocket/chain/pulley and belt on it.  Does it make sense to try and bring it back to good condition? Any thoughts or advice on what I should do with it. All thoughts appreciated.

	Dale, Scott Buttrum(scottyb) has one he's ready to part with...says I should have it to be with my lonely A ! I won't be upset if it shows up here, but it'd be 'happier' on your patch than mine ! Wife did like the 20 litres of gas that I siphoned out of my 'ugly combine' to put into her car though !
