[AT] When did you start collecting old tractors?

[Gene Dotson]

    Ralph;
    Probably won't make the sale in Sask. That is a nice looking 40 though. 
Is that an add on hydraulic unit on the back perhaps?.  Will that fit on a 
25 foot trailer with the international 110?


    This sale is coming up this Friday in Farmland, Indiana, about 75 miles 
from me. Still debating on this one. Sure a lot of nice Case tractors here.
