| I've always liked the one-eighty. Dad has one and it is very utilitarian. I'd like to find a nice one sometime. Seems most on auctions are beat up. |

| Keep in mind if you would please, I have a 4 row [ 500 series?] corn planter and a 303 baler w/ thrower, in Eastern NY that I need to unload. I may end up scrapping this fall, my friend over there isdoing some house cleaning, and I may go that route. Pricing is low on both items, send any interested buyers my way if you would. |

Nice 180 Gas. Quite a few 180 gas tractors are appearing in the past few years especially around here in MN. Out of 4 180 tractors in our family, 2 of them are gas. Mine is a diesel. Love the 180's.

Just picked up a 180 gas this past spring, nice tractor once I got it running. The traction booster and hold position levers are frozen on mine, been soaking in Kroil for months with no luck. Those levers are frozen on my neighbors 180 also. Is this a common problem? ------------- Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives. |
