That 3600 is going to be a big step up from that 861. You will
really like it.. Great choice. <br>

<p class="">That is a lot to have been through. Glad
to hear you survived!! Surgery after age 60 is just
not a good thing... I am nearing that time when I
need to get a bunch of things out of here and let
someone else own this too expensive land. I own a
bigger farm in better land with neighbors who would
be some help. The auction process would be a very
emotional thing for me as I have many many projects
that just had the problem of money and time. now
its the time. If I die here, all my "friends"would
show up at the funeral with their trucks and
trailers..<br class="">

<div dir="auto" class="">Spencer, So sorry to read
about your health issues. Since i connected you
with that 430V tractor, the original owner would
be interested in knowing how much it sold for. I
marveled at the effort you took to free up the
engine and got it running again. Great job. As I'm
approaching 81 years old, I'm now realizing they
can't dig a hole deep enough to take my tractors
& my other toys with me when I pass on. I
never want a farm auction because it would being
able to see your funeral live. Sorry for the rant!</div>

Where do I start? Not exactly sure but I know I
won't be able to tell <br class="">
this story properly if I start with the tractor so
hang in there<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
I haven't been exactly talkative for a while and
have been holding quite <br class="">
a bit back. Its been a wild ride for me over the
last 10-ish months. <br class="">
I got meningitis last fall, got thrown in the
hospital in October, had a <br class="">
craniotomy(broken sinus bone allowed a pathways for
pathogens, hence the <br class="">
meningitis and craniotomy to repair the sinus),
recovered, all the while <br class="">
missing only 2-3 weeks of work (thank goodness for
work-from-home), <br class="">
continuing my work on my masters degree, and meeting
my farm obligations <br class="">
(also thank goodness all this happened in the late
fall and winter where <br class="">
chores and obligations are few and minor).<br
class="">
<br class="">
So I've been busy....<br class="">
<br class="">
By the time they figured out my health issues, I had
become quite ill. <br class="">
Meningitis is serious shit and I became so ill I
also started getting <br class="">
secondary infections(pneumonia, etc). Hearing I
was two shakes from <br class="">
death and then hearing they have to lift the lid to
fix it .<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
All that and then requiring 6 months to feel
"normal" reordered my <br class="">
priorities.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
How does this relate to the 430V? Glad you
asked. One of my projects <br class="">
is a 1957 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup. It is a very low
mileage, very nice <br class="">
original truck with minimal rust. I took it apart
in the early oughts <br class="">
and stored every piece carefully on shelves in my
shop. The cab is on <br class="">
blocks in front of my Pacer's parking place. It
was always going to be <br class="">
a long and expensive project that also would require
lots of shop <br class="">
space; but time, money and space have all been in
short supply for <br class="">
years. So the project never got off the ground. I
have decided to <br class="">
prioritize it. One solution to opening up space
and money is to sell <br class="">
a tractor. Selling the John Deere 430V as opposed
to the Pacer opens <br class="">
up the most funds and space.<br class="">
<br class="">
So I spoke with Debbie Polk (Polk Auctions) and they
are going to <br class="">
include my tractor in the upcoming Labor day
auction. I chose Polk <br class="">
because I have done tons of business with them over
the years - mainly <br class="">
on behalf of other folks but also myself personally.
This is probably my <br class="">
last chance to do business with them as a
consignor. Also they have <br class="">
always been great to do business with.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
So there you have it. A lot in a nutshell and
probably more than you <br class="">
wanted to know. I felt like it was time to come
clean about all I have <br class="">
been through over the last many months and to also
announce my recent <br class="">
decision to sell the 430V.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
Have a great weekend!<br class="">
<br class="">
