Hi Mike,
it is a factory John Deere Cab from a German Company called Walter Mauser; they are producing cabs for nearly every tractor. The 2 brooms i bouhght used; they are for snow removal because they have only 8 rows; for dirt removal you have 16 oder 32 rows with some metal in it; we here in Germany do not have always a lot of snow and for light snow removal a broom is good enough; but in the past winter a broom had no chance. I had to take the snow plow.
My self made bucket is rather a little copy of the original John Deere bucket but a little heavier built; I prepared the bucket for making a grapple as I have seen some good grapples here on TBN. Also the idea with the hooks on the bucket is simple but good; always the simple ideas are good!
About the pictures i trie to upload some; when I am able to upload you would probably wish I hadn't get a resizing programm because of the amount of pictures !? I nearly have 300 pics from my tractor and many details; how do you call the thing in front of my tractor where I can hang in the snow plow and lift up ? I never saw this on the american sites; perhaps it's a typical German attachment;
I also have some pics from my 955; I do a complete rebuild; it was sandblasted and I gave him new colour; the front axle had a little issue cause of neglecting greasing the grease points and so a small metal ring in the axle housing destroyed the housing at the edge but I was able to repair it so there is no more play in the axle.
Actually it is 11 a.m.; probably all you are sleeping and dreaming of your Johnnys out in the barn!
