Here is the new addition to my orange herd.  This will allow me to get the 190XT fixed.  I purchased this off of Lynn Marshall.  So far, it is as good as he painted the picture.  No fuel leaks, no oil leaks, no hydraulic leaks, new AC unit, Heat, Lights all work, engine runs strong, clean exhaust, sheet metal good, shifting is good once I finally figured it out. 

Twisting that gear shift definitely had me confused.  I finally got it off of the gooseneck after a call to Lynn.  Drove it around to figure out shift pattern.

Never thought I would buy a tractor sight unseen but I just couldn't spend 9 hours one way to look at it and bring it back home.  I wanted to start with a tractor that had a rebuilt engine and working AC since they are quite expensive.  Issues can always come up but I have a better starting point this time.

I had a pleasant experience using fr8star as the shipper and it was slightly below $2/loaded mile.  I am ready for hay season even though the hay isn't growing enough just yet!  Glad you guys close to him chickened out on buying it!  Another gloomy, rainy day in Indiana so pic looks a little dull.

I also finally made to Orange Level in the forum too!

I don't have powershift.   I hope to paint it up later this summer to show up at the local parade and maybe a tractor show. 

We will see if time permits for the cosmetic stuff. 

Always good to see one working exSW!  Mine is meant for working too.  I have made hay for 10 years with no AC, so this is going to be a little more relaxing this year, I hope!  Guy on the wagon is always jealous of Air. :-)
