[AJD] John Deere 70 restoration pictures

[Dennis Cotton]

I had put it on that side because its easier for me to look over my right
shoulder..  but I may switch it when I run my 30 combine... time will tell.
I even thought about getting another one so I have one on both sides...

I just keep going back and looking at that super John Deere 70.  I spent 
quite a bit of time on one and they are just about my favorite John Deere 
tractor.  I hope to have one some day.  One thing I noticed is the 
powr-trol lever on the right side.  We never put them on that side.  Just 
out of curiosity, what side is the most popular?  I always get on and off 
the tractor on the left.  I can't count the number of zippers I ripped out 
jumping off that thing only to find my coat had the lever under it!.  This 
happens doing chores with the heat hauser on.  Hurrying to open or close 
the gate.  I am sure I am not the only one that has done that dumb 
trick.  I am short, too.  So, as you can guess, I usually hung there with 
my feet just off the ground.<g>  Tough lever, that thing.
