Well, finally put the finishing touches on the 200. Got the cab mounted, it came from Iowa, decals from Nebraska. Dad found the duals in central Il., so we made wider spacers to stagger the planter rows, tires even match pretty close. This week we put a new head liner up in the cab and got the monitor wired. Good, solid ol tractor. I'll try to get an action shot this spring. Nothin like going to the field with a brand new 37 year old tractor. Thanks for lookin.

He has the glass but likes to run without it. The cab with no glass is lots cooler to run than no shade at all, and roll over protection when duals are off. Now both 200's have cabs with glass removed.

| I spent alot of time when I was a kid with Dad planting with a 200. That was a good tractor and worked well whatever it was hooked too. The only drawback is if you traveled a ways, it was slow unless you wound it up. But back then, everyone was not nearly in the hurry that we are today. |

Shameless, the steps came with the cab, and yes they are nice for crawling in and out.
