what is going to hold up to the abuse that big red will see......?don't jinx her by saying she is "mechanically done", have you touched her and drove her around the yard yet......?in all honesty this is great news, and what has been the thought/discussion/ponderin about having some sort of bench stock on hand for future repairs (considering the parts for this are getting harder and harder to find)?
I did drive it all over the gravel parking lot today. It runs great. That old Case diesel 451 cu in engine is roaring like a lion and absolutely no smoke. That motor is solid. Richard has everything adjusted like a Swiss watch and for an old piece of equipment, it runs pretty wellWe talked about bench stock as well. There are some other 1150B operators in the area. I'm keeping an eye out. I believe I will try and snatch a couple up and park them down at the farm as spare parts. But really, Red is made to run around the clock and I'll only be teasing it with my occasional dirt pushing exercises.
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
Seeing pic good here.On the paint, have you looked at the stuff at Tractor supply? Not expensive, made for implement, has a hardener and has matching rattle cans.
So I can see pics but no notifications, hmm,,,,,,,
Pics are loading fine for me, albeit slow. I have logged a ticket with the ISP to look and see if there are any known VPS latency issues.A couple of your pics are on the large size also.... but hasn't really been an issue before :o
