I told you it was an outstanding bargain, mainly since you wanted it and bought it. To want it and not buy it, if you can afford it, is to misplace the value of money. Don't worry too much about the price unless you want to skin one guy and make a killing on a quick sale. It is more of a bargain after I hear what came with it. Maybe you should be ashamed you didn't pay more. If so, give me some of the implements. I have a 300 FH that a guy GAVE me. But I only got a disc. My engine was stuck. I had to drive 500 miles to get it. It is still not running. You got a better deal. If you had not bought it, I insinuated in my message that I would want it so I told you it would be too much but I would want to know where it was so I could go get it. It sounds like you knew the market and made a wise buy. Offer the implements one at a time and you can recover most of your investment. Or keep them and admit you made a nice deal. But it is more important to enjoy having a nice tractor than to crow over what a good deal you made. "Buyers remorse" is the proper term for misgivings you have over a major purchase. Farmall tractors are not like used cars in that they are few and far between and vary greatly in condition. They are more like classic antique cars. A wise collector can intelligently and happily pay more than the dealer would because he wants the item for enjoyment, not for resale. Sorry if I upset you, I had intended to be funny.

In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
