buckhunter,
Yes, I agree. Many downstaters relocate here to old farms. Few have tractors or bushogs to keep the fields trimmed. I like driving my 5065E 65 horsepower JD and keep busy on my farm and others nearby. Bushog rates go from $25 to $75 per hour. I spent about 10 hours and 10 gallons of diesel to do the mowing job. I have about $300 to $400 into this 39A. I reckon I paid a fair price. Adam

Adam,
That is a very good deal. A good 39A goes for more than $400, a new one for a lot more, but if you tuck your time into the deal as a $75 per hour project at 10 hours, it is pretty close to the value, so a good deal all round for both parties. Glad you got a memory back in the fold. So far most of my tractor projects have involved helping folks who have helped me in the past. Not any money, but good neighbor building stuff for sure. Ed
