I rented a Case 480LL for a week and they brought out the oldest landscape loader they had, it smokes worse then an nicotine addict but its a decent machine. Stupid me for not asking for 4x4, the LL barely has enough power getting its self out of clay and forget box blading. hah anyway

here's a pic of our '70 580 CK sittin in my driveway, today at lunch time.
she's a little rough looking, but a little paint will soon cure that.

that's a laurn tractor cab, converted to work on the hoe (her cab was shot)

this machine was bought 4 years ago, and it hadn't run since 1984, now we've put over 200 hours on it. after lunch i had it out doing a little work for a customer of ours

Nice, the standard hoe that I was using in the begining has a hole in one of the hoe hoses. So the hoe is out of use till it's fixed. The 580B's do, do the job but I find I get frustrated with them real quick just because they are old, and things happen. I personally wouldn't go older than a 580C, that's what I'm going to buy once it's time, not only cuz I like that model, but they're affordable too. Anyway, it's nice because you can actually find some that have side panels for the engine to keep it clean and free of damaging debris. You also don't have all these hoses exposed to dangers such as what our machines do...Oh well, I don't have to worry about fixing it. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
