Just got an e mail from a source I cannot disclose but whom I have known and trusted on New Holland matters for several years.
He told me some interesting things-
1- Watch out for 1033 wagons; most are so old now that problems may begin to show up solely due to age. He likes the 1037.
2- The reason it is hard to find NH expertise on these things is that owners typically become their own experts on them, and they rarely need substantial repair anyway (unless they are wrecked, etc);
3- A 1033 cannot be converted into a 1037; I had been told it was possible, not that doing so was a big requirement;
4- He advised looking at "Farm Chronicles" ads for bale wagons; have not heard of that so I will google it.
Hope some of this helps,
Jim
