| I saw that, too. Optical illusion I suppose. I'd hate to speculate on how much it cost me to get mine painted nice, no shinny paint job, just painted ! |

Sure looks like rear wheel is crocked. And if he hired all work done and it was completely overhauled it could get expensive! ------------- 5 different TT-10's,5 TT-18's Terra Tigers,B-10,2 B-207's,B-110,2 B-112's,HB-112,B-210,B-212,HB212,2 Scamp's & Homilite T-10.

All I see is maybe, and I mean , MAYBE, $1500 in rubber and paint. I'd have to see the bills for the other $6500 that was 'spent'. ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

I sent my G engine out to be baked, hot tanked, bored, crank shaft ground, new piston, new bearings, new valves, and I assembled it when I go it home. Shop bill a tad over 1100.00 . Four new tires with tubes. 300.00. I also needed new brake shoes and one axle with bearings. That cost is not coming to mind. If I would have hired every thing done as shown in my pictures it might have cost a more than a coupla hundred with paint to only have 1500 out of pocket. That does not count the 1100.00 that I paid for the tractor.

Maybe that G is one of those rare units designed for the big wheat farms out west or a tobacco farm in the Appalations. ------------- You don't really have to be smart if you know who is! |
