[AT] New tractor

[Cecil R Bearden]

Dan:
What kind of baler are you pulling?  I have an 1850 and if it was 
running and had a cab I would be using it daily when baling.  I ran it 
for 15 years before Dad tore the clutch out slipping it . It was parked 
for a year and the engine froze up.  It is another of those round tuits 
I have here to get repaired.
