This a old time dealer that found this as old stock long hidden? Or is this a AGCO thing getting around 20 years late to remember there heritage?

Also how common today for a dealer to be able to have more than one major brand. Back in the day the AC dealer here had NH, Massey , Steiger, Glencoe, and other short line things and GMC trucks too.

Anyway glad you got it, and are going to fly it.

Where I grew up, generally an implement dealer was 1 ‘major’ brand, ie; IH, Allis, JD, etc., then also was a dealer for 1 or 2 brands that did not manufacture a tractor. Such as New Idea, or New Holland, Knight, Badger, Gehl, Kewanee, Brillion, etc.
