Your're not the only one with spring fever, I've had it for about a week now, LOL! I want the weather to warm up so I can make a trip home and get my WD "Wayne" back together and running again (after going through the head, etc...) It will be fun to actually be able to use the tractor again. Going to put my SpeeCo 3 point on it that it came with and see how that works. ------------- Jacob Swanson 1920 6-12; 1925,1926 20-35 longfenders; 1925,1926 15-25's; 1927,1929 20-35 shortfenders; C; B's; IB; WC's; WD; WD45 |

Nice spring pictures. Makes me want to get back in the shop and finish some projects. It's supposed to be near 60 for the next few days but it will take almost all that time for the snow to melt and mud to dry. Don't know if there is much frost in the ground, may be able to get in the field in a week or so, of course it will probably snow again by then... ------------- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer" Allis Express participant |

Have fun down there and stay out of the sun.

It can be a solid mold board plow or a slat plow...either one is fine,but it needs to a real nice one and ready to go plowing. I need it for my 170 for your spring plow day,so if you know of anyone that has a nice 4 bottom plow for sale,please let me know. Can't wait to smell that nice,rich black dirt! Rick |
