Tractor
John Deere 820
Here are a few pics of my 1968 John Deere 820. The front end bucket was modified from another tractor for moving dirt and gravel. It also came with the 4ft brush hog. It's the first tractor that I've had and have fallen in love with it! I don't know much about tractors but I'm trying to learn what I can as I go (and as it goes wrong!) It starts every time and runs just as good. Once I get a 2 bottom plow and a tiller I'll be set.

Very nice tractor...you are going to enjoy that and you will soon wonder how you ever got by without a loader...LOL Can't beat the older John Deeres ...

In all honesty I haven't had to get by without a loader...it was on there when I bought it. It was one of the main reasons we got it, so we could move gravel. The tractor was repainted 3 or so years ago, but up close you can see the outline of "Freeman 3000" on it, so I assume that's what it came off of. But it is quite the tractor, I find an excuse to climb up there and get away any chance I get! I've only used it for mowing and moving gravel, but I'd really like to get a plow and really work it. Now it just needs a cab and some AC ;)
