Nope, not yet, but Wednesdays catch makes 2 VERY nice 69 Sovereigns and a third thats a basket case
Wednesdays I almost didn't go after. Was pretty broke and it was in Newport, VT. 276 miles Round trip. But I had $335 in it setting in my driveway, and have put a battery, points, fluids, and a 4 hour cleaning into it.
My basket case 3212H has a freshly gone through hydrolift and is going on Wednesdays, which had hydrolift and still has the engine pulley and BGB mount on it
I have to grin a little.

Newport is a nice area. Headed up there the second week in May. Might have to convince my co-worker to let me bring home a tractor if things like this are hidden up there. LOL |

Newport is nice, its still late winter there, the lake wasn't thawed, and everything was still completely brown.
As for hidden up there, This is the only one I was watching there. But you can believe me, there is great stuff hidden all over. Like out back here! LOL |

Larry. Stuff isn't hidden at your place. I know exactly where you live! LOL Dave |
Money can't buy you happiness. It can however buy you a beer. And that is close enough.

Always in! Sometimes on hold or patiently waiting for sellers to realize they aren't going to get $1,000 for these machines unless they have some rare attachments and accessories
And this tractor wasn't running, had no history, and is a plain jane. Not even a rear lift. A half decent (maybe)42" deck and thats it.
My BIG TEN, a more collectable tractor thats also more original, HAH!!! This 3212H was supposed to be "original" but all paint has been redone at least once, seat has been redone, and only 1 decal and the hoodstripe are left.....
Anyway, mt BIG TEN is listed on CL for $500 OBRO, and no bites or even nibbles on it. Nor do I really expect too without dropping the price to $300
I doulbt I could get much more than $500 for this either |
