I have the cure for that issue. It's getting a set of those rear end braces that I designed for the aluminum rears.

Yep, but I also got a Haban sickle bar mower and a cultivator. Give the little pig a good cleaning today. Maybe not as bad as I thought. Cleaned up pretty good.

I wish I could find them in such good shape!


Being an Illinois guy, I'd agree! Most of the "older" tractors here are pretty rough. That thing looks really good!!! I'd fix it, no questions asked! :beerchug:
