To look at a wd45 (thats what I would of needed the rim for) and when we got there everything was WORE OUT JUNK the 45 had a broken then fixed drawbar, hand clutch wore out, front axle about to fall off, No brakes, no snap coupler laches, milky motor oil, needed tires and a rim, and I dont think it EVER seen a grease gun!!! I went thinking it just sat and needed a rim but it was a waste of time getting a number before looking. There was also a 190 and a 7000 and those tractors needed to be SHOT AND TAKEN TO THE SCRAP YARD I mean china aint this BAD. And we also went to look at a no-till drill and that thing was WORE OUT also! And that 45 and much more wrong with it! Sorry for the long post but this was sad! ------------- In Search Of: 1958 Allis Chalmers D17 Diesel serial #9643D |

So did anyone stay long enough to get prices on tractors? thought about going to look at wd45 but i knew any equipment at that farm was going to be wore out to the point of only parts value. nathan ------------- 35WC 37WC D-10 D-12 D-14 D-15 D-17series 1 (2)D-17IV D-19 CA RC Unstyled WF GLEANER E 416H 314H 712H 716H |
