Well, Bye-bye BIG TEN. Found a good home and they matched my asking price so... Down the road.
Ah well, so long old friend, BUT! I just know I'll be happier on the original version of the round hood, and this old girl is truly exceptional, and ready to work! 
Actually, my LL 2110 w/hydrolift is getting chains, counterweight and dozer blade to replace the BIG TEN, need an ugly short wheel base worker for out in the woods. |

Yeh, its still a nice tractor and hopefully always will. I think I found a good home. I* didn't have to sell at all, but I have to many to maintain properly with the resources I'm willing to devote to them. And of the tractors designesd and built by Simplicity, I'd just as soon have their version. |

I wouldn't mind seeing the Big 10 going if I had a really nice looking round hood like that to take it's place. I don't know if it is the fenders, hood, or a combination of everything else but that is one sweet looking tractor. Doesn't even need any attachments. Just looks good setting there.

| Well, you got someone who was willing to pay to have a classic like that. Boy I which I could find my old late model B10 so much better tractor than my old B112 ever was. |
