318 Farewell Party

[Johndeere3720]

So, left with 4 tractors and a gator, Is it hard to choose which one to drive? That is one nice 318. Almost as clean as my L118 which lives in a heated shed. I like to spoil my only tractor.

Here is a photo of the AR that I have not got around to getting out of last winters hibernation yet. This is a 1951, I restored it in 2002, it runs like a dream.
I do not have photos of the Ford 800 or the Golden Jubilee which are in the shed as well.

Here are some shots of a 425 that I picked up at a farm auction in June of 08. I really had no intention of buying it, but it was going very cheap, so... guess what. It is a 1993 model and had very few hours on it, I beleive the clock said 300 or so, and the underside of the deck was just like new. It was always left outdoors as the paint was faded nearly white, and was scratched up and a few cosmetic parts missing. I took it home, changed all the fluids and spark plugs, cleaned her up, gave her some fresh paint and added those few parts and a few new decals. As I mentioned before, I said my next tractor was going to be diesel so I put it up for sale asking the "going rate" for comparablr in these parts, I made $3000.00 profit on it towards what turned out be toeards my 2305.
