Got the old girl out tonight had from new k reg 6800 hours

rolling a bit of backwards wheat with extra wide rows thanks to my brother and blocked coulters.

she’s only a yard machine now, hasn’t had hard work for 10 years.

she smoked well at first but soon cleared, the steep slopes killed her for momentum but she beat it.

man she’s loud and hot in the cab moden machines spoil us all.
But woundnt ever change her for the world:)

90-34 only bill she has ever given me is a alternator, and hydronic pump sheared it’s shaft. Still on original good year rubber .

We got the same here, bought it about 5 years ago to go on the straw chopper, tx cab, just clocked 15000 hrs, still starts at a flick of the key. Something quite nice doing a job on a nice summer's day with bothe doors flung open and a nice breeze pulling through.
