Guys, 2 weeks ago I was call by a guy here in Palmer Lake, CO. He asked me if I wanted his JD 112 before he scraped it. I said I would be right over and look at it. Went and looked at it and it was totaly complete unit with hydraulic lift, deck, snow blower, bar treat tires, weights, chains, and push blade. He was wanting to just give it to me. I said hell no he won't give it to me. I offered a $100.00 and he took it. Said it hadn't ran in 5 years because it was loosing compression. Took it home, took out the spark plug and poured some oil in the cylinder. Oil came out as fast I poured it in. Figured it was the head/gasket. Took the head off and sure enough, had a 1/2 gap in the gasket. Bought a new gasket and had the head plained. Runs like a champ now. All of a $200.00 invested with purchase, head gasket, milling of the head and tune-up parts. Since I don't need this unit for my business and really have no desire to collect garden tractors (only bigger tractors), I placed it Craigslist. Got a call from a gal in Ordway, CO wanting to trade her 1963 Studebaker Lark straight across for it. She sent me photo's and it appears to be in original condition with no rust or anything. It has 95 K on the OD. My question is. What would you guy's do? Trade or wait for a cash deal. I posted the 112 on the photo ads tonight so you guy's can look at it. Thanks Allen

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
