a friend called today and said he found me a wd. i go to check it out and it turns out to be a wd45 gas with a factory wide front. looking at it closer it has brand new front tires rears are at about 90% (rims look great). things are looking pretty good, owner just put in a new batt. full tune up, and a rebuilt alternator (12volt). the guy tells me he would like to have $900 for it , i looked at him and said sold. it is in its work clothes but been inside most its life. by the way he has the loader with it that he believes came on it new,and its in great shape to. a true survivour

I had a dream last night that I got a nice 185 for either $3,500 or $2,500 but can't remember. I only get good deals in my dreams.

hey now, that man gave me the price. i didnt even try to get it cheaper, i think he was just happy to see it was going to a good home and not a scrap yard.
