I plan on using it to mow and bale the pasture. I also have a WD but its getting too old to do it all by itself.

sjerden, That picture of the WD and the baler bring back lots of memories. Mostly good ones! Hot haying weather, dust and chaff covering your sweat. We usually stacked on wagons to transport to the barn. Most seasons we were doing 4000 plus bales for my Dad's dairy cows. Spent a lot of time around the WD's and WD45's in the old farming days .guess I am doing that still but not trying to farm just playing. Did you put the new tires on? Thats not a cheap date any more. The rims look like they have been cleaned up too. Regards, Chris

It came with the new tires. They are worth as much as I paid for the tractor.

Looks like a great tractor. Hope it runs as good as it looks. Any repairs or upgrades planned in the near future? Not picking at your machine, but when I get one home there's always a little something that needs to be done to make it mine. You know, bonding with the new toy. - Brad

I also have an 80R to cut with. Using a chopper right now until I get new ledgers and knives on it. I have all the parts, just need to find the time to put them on and service the sickle. Picked up a Johnson Sickle Servicer at a sale last year. Hoping it makes the job easier than it used to be.
