But tractor is sitting there rotting away for last 8 years now.Had good rubber at one time . I asked him about plans for it or if he considered finding new home for it ."oh gonna fix that one of these days " knowing full well it'll sit there another 10 years .

I hinted if he ever wants to part with it to let me know, but know that will never happen .
