This is what it looked like after the July 4th parade in 2006. I was a couple of years off on the new paint promise.

Nice looking WD. Without a doubt the WD and WD45 are my favorites. ------------- The 14th Annual Exclusive AC Swap Meet will be held in Boonville, MO, March 7-8, 2025. See the club website for details: http://www.moacclub.com/ |

| Adam, those guys from up north can have the big snows, I'll stick with the 4, 5 or 6" and the more moderate temperatures we have any day. WD really looks good. Tim |

I used the WD to move snow yesterday. I got home from work today and saw this. Now, you guys may be used to your hydraulics holding for days at a time, but I'm was a little proud to see the balde still in the air 26 hours later. It may have dropped a couple of inches, not sure if it was all the way up when I parked it. I guess I did something right when I put the pump back together!

Looks like a postcard to me. I think you got more snow than we did this time Adam. We only had maybe 2-3 inches. ------------- '41 C w/Woods L503 mower, #3 mower, 2-way plows for C |

Looks good Adam! I hadn't seen the before pic. You did an awesome job! Hope to have my C looking that good one day.
We ended up with almost 7" of the white stuff, and a decent amount of ice to go with it. I'm ready for you northern boys to take this stuff back, it's really crampin my style here. LOL! ------------- I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me! |

My WD got to play in the snow today. It just didn't look quite as pretty doing it. Nice tractor, love the "before" pic. |

Very nice! Those are calendar quality photos! As tired as I am of snow, it sure makes a pretty backdrop for the bright orange paint. ------------- If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done! |
