| I just inherited my grandfather's CA tractor and equipment. I have found a lot of the Front mounted planter parts (rough shape). Does anyone have a complete manual for it or pics of them set up on their CA? I now that I am missing a lot of parts for the planter and the cultivators. I may just sell the parts I have to fix up the tractor but really want to see how much I am missing. Has not been on the tractor since mid 60s. My manual is falling apart. I also have my other Grandfather's C. I have both of their two disk plows. Thank you for any help. |

| I will start posting pics as soon as I get all of it together. It is spread across 4 different sheds and buildings. The hard part is trying to figure out what goes with the CA or not. The man never threw anything out. Thank you for the welcome. |

| I have a CA with a complete side dresser if that is what you are calling the planter. I'd be happy to send pics of what I have. Inbox me for my number. I also know where parts or whole assembly may be |

| I have ordered the same manual as above. It is a CA front mounted planter with cultivators. It is an amazing piece of machinery. My mother remembers her dad spending all day setting it up on the tractor for the planting season. I am on the fence on restoring it or the CA. My grandfather was a very practical man and would tell me to use the tractor lol. The tractor is in running operable shape but needs some tlc to keep it functional. I have other implements with it but the planter setup was the most interesting one. Thank you all for the info. If I ever decide to sell I will sell it all together to someone who would restore it and not part it out (hopefully). |
