I hate transporting the thing. It's so wiiiiiidddeeee! That's why the side shield is dented up. ------------- Charlie '48 B, '51 CA, '56 WD45 '61 D17, '63 D12, '65 D10 , '68 One-Ninety XTD |

Dad bought the 390 when it was less than 5 years old, at a John Deere dealer auction. He only paid something like $100. It had a cracked wobble box but he got it welded up and we used it to cut mostly alfalfa hay for his 37 cow dairy. In the mid 80's he found a good wobble box off a 720 Allis silage chopper and I only quit using it, guessing, around 2006 or 2008. It cut a lot of acres and needed some missing shields right behind the rollers which was causing it to plug up. Joe Graunke has it now. It cut better and left a better windrow than the New Holland 460 Dad had for a time in the 80's. ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |
