Was delivered Tuesday. Looks like they replaced several parts (one steering arm, one lift-link casting, some of the wiring harnesses for the lights, clamps in one rear wheel, battery covers, . . .) with new parts and then let it sit for several years. I wonder if they fixed it up a little to get it in good shape - then had engine trouble and parked it. If this was the case, my chances may be better that the transmissions and rear end are in good shape. I thought I had the 4-post and canopy sold, so I took the roll bar off and loaded it on my truck. (That ain't easy!) Went in to eat supper and had an e-mail saying the deal had fallen through. Oh well, supper was good and I wanted it off the tractor anyway. I may post it for sale in the classifieds. I'd like to trade it in on a 2-post and canopy. Now I have to figure out a way to separate 2 tractors, swap the halves, and bolt 'em back together on dirt without killing myself. I may have more than a few questions before I get through - I'll keep ya'll posted. Mitch
