Still fighting hard with myself on weather to quit farming or continue. I have lost some ground 10 years ago and more 2 years ago. As a result I have only made a profit 1 year in the last 10. If I decide to keep it up I need to spend 20 grand on a newer combine thats dependable then lease more ground
When the FIL retired from farming sold all the equipment kept his land and leased it out. He said that covered the taxes and some leftover. Only thing I suggest is deal with the land before you go. Subdivision, surveys etc. My wife and SIL are having a time of it dealing the mess, and lawyers, thrives I tell you.

I guess the one thing going for me or it could be against me is the land not in hay is all leased.
 
Morning guys.
Looks like a sunny day ahead but a little cool.
We sure gave our friend a great send off yesterday.
The room was just packed.
His 55 Crown Vic was parked out front.
Glad I woke up alive this morning haha.
Have a great day guys and enjoy every moment of it
 
Finished the snow mobile hood today and no more projects for me. I don't paint in my garage just get things ready for paint.
The 63 Fury is the last of my projects.

70’s Polaris TX 340/440 both free air at -30 both went like stink. No suspension rode like a plank. But at -30 you really need to keep your hand off the bar because it’s leaned right out then poof goes the piston. They have chrome cyls. So acid wash the aluminum off the cyl. New piston rings and back in action. Had one 340 solid 70/75 mph sled if you could hold on to it. When there all restored a really sharp lookin sled. Wouldn’t want to ride it ever again

I'm not a sled rider because I suck at riding anything open air at 20 below. Polaris did a **** job at making their fiberglass hoods. This one I fixed was a pain to get it straighter than factory. Had to reinforce it a lot.

Can you still get decals for it or do you have to get them made. I’ll look in my Sun and snow catalog. I know they sell just about everything else for older sleds
 
Morning guys.
Mostly cloudy they are saying so wait and see.
Have to get the 300 cleaned up after going to St Catharines on Tuesday.
Gee, another week just fly by, hope it was good for you.
