Im trading my 416 to B-16 IC for this lot. A B-207, B-207 E i believe(anyone know about the running boards on it?), Yeoman 647?(last model made) 728, parts 707, and a homesteader thats not pictured. Also getting alot more parts, decks, and a snowblower. I know im missing grills for the 207 E and Homesteader. Sounds like a good deal to me. What about you? I know alot of you guys a Large frame guys, but im not a RBT kind of guy.

| What a haul! I like the small tractors. They can still do a ton of work yet don't take up much space to store! :) Like Freddie said, that is a good ratio! |

| Well that is why Ford stopped making all their cars painted black. Different things appeal to different folks. If you both are happy it was a good deal. |

| I like RBT's, but at the same time, a "non running 416" for all that! A no brainer for sure. And like Phil said, if both you guys are happy, that's all that matters! |

It's a good deal for me for sure. Sick of seeing them sit here being ignored. Drives me nuts seeing things go to pot because of neglect, especially my own. I got rather intoxicated on them a few years ago, for some reason they came at me from all directions for about a month or so. I only ever used the Homesteader some, with the tiller and with a mower deck. I feel a bit like a horse riding the jockey on it, even though it never complained. I will be keeping one wee one around for finer mowing chores, and lawnroller duty, some places a large frame is a bit much.
This deal will make some room around here and make me feel better knowing they are in better hands. As for the 416, I used to think they were ugly, but the more pics I see of the fine examples around here and the more I look at the poor 410 I have torn down I'm developing an attraction. I still have not driven a shuttle, I'm looking forward to trying it. Had a 712S here some time ago but it left in a trade for an engine I was needing before I could get around to cleaning it up. Every trans and chassis combo has a place they are superior, I want to have tractors of all trannys to use for different tasks. Good excuse huh? |

Here is what the edge of my drive looked like early this evening.
I took this pic a couple hours later, I've been robbed!
Oh well, I have more space around here now I guess.
Jared, it was nice meeting you guys. I hope the trip home treated you well. Have fun with those little buggers, should keep you out of trouble for a few weeks anyway.
As for the 416 Allis, to it I say, welcome to the mess!
The 700 series is keeping it's back turned on it for now, not sure it was ready for a new sibling. The B-10 is too worried about it's own situation to care at this point. |

| So far I have looked through the pile of receipts that came with the 416, like you said, interesting! Fun to see the maintinence done throught the years. I have also sat on it, I felt kinda foolish, but it weren't the first time. I think I might fall for the 400 series yet, of course I haven't driven it yet. But it sure looks neat in the garage. |
