982 Is Home
 

Jenn and I got the 982 home today. Going to take it to my buddy's tomorrow, the hydro needs some work. I'm loving this tractor!

That is an awesome looking tractor, I love the red ones. Too bad it doesn't have power steering.

NICE TRACTOR!!! I want one!! :beerchug:

Glad you got it home.. hope the Hydro isn't too bad

Thanks guys!

That tractor looks like it would be easy to love!

Thanks and I agree! :beerchug:

Sweet John! That paints all original isn't it? Looks dang good!

Bout time for some V61's, eh? :biggrin2:

Great looking machine! :beerchug:

Looks good AC. What's wrong with the hydro?

Nice machine Allen.

Thanks guys!

Ryan, it's getting the 1872's V61's and rear ag tires. :beerchug:

Sam, the trunnion needs rebuilt, along with some linkage adjustments. The hydro lever doesn't go all the way forward. I already got all the parts. It's going to be a great tractor.

Thanks Brian! The paint is original. It's a little faded. We're going to give it a good waxing, and see if the red comes out again.

Nice 982 Allen. Hit it with some rubbing compound first. It will help clean up any oxidation and fine scratches before you wax it.

Thanks Adam! I appreciate the tip also! :beerchug:

Congratulations ACecil :beerchug:
The 982 just about fills up the trailer :ThumbsUp:

Thanks Diz, it is a beast! :beerchug:

My friend had a red mustang that was faded to the point where it was pink, he used red wax on it and it looked brand new.

Thanks, I'll definitely give it a try! :beerchug:

Nice looking 982 Allen! Gotta love the red ones!!:beerchug:

Did you keep your red weights?

Allen,
Congrats! Glad to see you got her home. Bet it looks great next to the 782. :beerchug:

Thanks guys!

Daniel, I kept the weights. They are going on the 982.

Is that the same 982 that was listed on CL a week or so ago? good stuff! Oh yeah, I'm jealous...

On a related red tractor note the local Cub dealer in Wilkesboro had a 782 behind the fence the other day that was in great shape, still had the hub caps and everything! I asked about it and was told it was being repaired and NOT FOR SALE!

Thanks! The 982 wasn't listed. I lucked into it. :beerchug:

The hydro is fixed on the 982. I'm pretty excited! Will get all the tires switched, and get the 1872 sold. :beerchug:

glad to hear your 982 is fixed Allen!!

Thanks Lew! :ThumbsUp:

Got the 982 back home tonight! My buddy got the hydro all fixed up, and I'm very appreciative! It is doing great! I'm so excited about it, I had to go for a night drive...lol. :ThumbsUp:

First rides after repairs are always great! Even at night!:beer2:

That's true, Jay! :beerchug:

Looking good ACecil :ThumbsUp:
982 looks sweet with the lights on :biggrin2:

Appreciate it, Diz! :beerchug:
