40 Year Old Tractors Rule

[stoshu312]

I have never been on a duscussion board before so be kind to me.

I have a Case 310G Crawlewr/Loader that I have completely dis-manteled,

had all parts sandblasted and painted and replaced all parts needing replacement or repair. My $4000 toy turned into a $24,000 toy.

I am interested in keeping the 60's era tractors running and preserved.

I am near retirement and would like to make or rebuild old parts as I am a machinest and have welding and machining equipment were I live.

If I can find my way back here i'll see you guys again.:thumbsup:

Restoring the old stuff can be fun if the desire is there. Buying a $24K machine might have been the better left brain choice after a little personal experience with the older stuff.
