    Homes… Your Thoughts… Old or New?

    I’ve lived in homes as old as 1910 and as new as 1993… In many ways I think I dodged a bullet with older as I’ve seen some really bad new construction build quality on brand new development homes friends bought in Arizona and Texas… All have had conflict around the new home builder warranties...

    I just bought a 10 year old Kubota with 280 hours

    Is the age an issue compared to the time... Of course I can not tell HOW it was used except by scuffs of the paint and tire wear etc. The only thing that I noticed was the adhering grime on any surface not easily washed. Might be rock dust. and the air filter element was positively loaded...

    Is there a market for old auto radiators besides the scrap metal pile?

    If so, how would you go about finding it? We have 1/2 dozen in my father's barn. One is from my old '67 D100, the rest are old, but I have no idea what they are.

    Buddy of mine just dropped this off, he was helping his boss move and he said if no one takes this it’s staying. He brought it to me. Gearbox seems ok. Rotates smoothly.
