Tractor
New Holland TC34DA
After nearly 10 years laying in a swampy field she is up and running again. Chased a bunch of electrical gremlins and several hydraulic issues but overall it was fairly easy so far. Still have a bunch of lines to replace and a few safety switches but all hydraulic functions work and she runs and drives. Considering it was a gift from my employer I made out pretty good.

I remember your introductory post! Doesn't that New Holland have really low hours? Outside of the exposure to the elements, it's damn near new.

You really got her cleaned up!

It's kind of sad that somebody would abuse a nice tractor like that by leaving it exposed to the weather. Why buy a tractor if you're not going to take care of it and park it inside.

Nice looking tractor. Hard to believe that it sat outside for all of that time.

It is inside my garage now. I will be building a shed over the next few months for sure.
