here's what's been keeping me busy

Great looking addition to the "family".
It's only March and you've already bought and restored two tractors this year. That's impressive!

the 55 740 I've been wanting for a year and a half now.. I have been making offers and counter offers to the seller for that entire time, every couple months.. he had listed if for sale 2ys ago.. way too high.. I told him what it was realistically worth.. over the next year we settled on a number a lil higher than my offer.. and lower than his sale price. I guess when he wasn't getting hits for 2ys he must have figured out he was too high..

this 4000 I lucked up on and stumbled over at a local auction.. I felt it was a good deal for the $$.. I got it for what I might pay for an average 8n.. and it's near 2x the tractor of an 8n..

Besides being really cool, what is it, and what was it used for? That front axle looks like its out of a military truck.

I think it is a cabbage farmer conversion.. it's on a rowcrop frame too if I'mnot mistaken..
