[AT] Super Six loader questions

[John Boehm]

I had a Super Six loader on a John Deere B about 15
years ago, but no longer own it. I have also seen them
on Farmalls and Olivers. They  are well designed and
well built units for farm type chores. I used the one
on the B for moving dirt and gravel on a few houses
that I built, but the Case 580C that I now own is a
lot more practical for the job.  Antique Power had an
article on them maybe ten years ago. If you want, I'll
dig my copies out and see if I can find it.
