Normally, I'd agree, but its actually a very good model surprisingly. My grandfather bought one new in 1994. I learned to drive on that thing, had to sell it at auction when he died. His had twice as many hours. Very durable and reliable tractor. Only issue we ever had was the year before he died, the hydraulic cylinders on the front started leaking, we rebuilt them and it was like new again. I tried to buy it at auction, bid up to what I had, 12,500. It went for 12750. been looking for one since off and on. Gonna need a tractor to maintain the 10 acres once the house is done, so its being explored as an option. The little yard loaders are north of 45,000 dollars now and cant do 1/3 of what the 6200 can.

There’s a Model A club in Minnesota, I understand, and since I know next to nothing about them (other than I want one), I’m pretty sure I’m going to join-up sometime soon and start asking questions and sniffing around. Ideally I think I’d like to get a convertible (forget what they’re called in Model A speak- cabriolet? Touring car?), as the only time it will be driven will be on really nice days, so why the hell not?

Anyway, that’s all in the future, and I have two trucks I’ll need to sell next spring before I can get serious about this, as I only have so much indoor space to park things.

Another right side tie rod end. I need to find 2 lefts now. I have plenty of time. I do need the lower ball joints. The steering linkage not so much. The ones on the 64 may be originals though. I haven't been underneath that car much yet for a thorough inspection.

Morning all.


So spent the last two days coming up with the best approach for a slight issue on the house build.

When we ran the water line, we brought it in thru the basement wall, sealed of course, ran about 12 inches into the basement wall, capped it. Then buried the rest. Didn’t think much of it then as it was early September. The water has since been turned on and the pipe filled as there is a frost proof hydrant in the the line and when the concrete truck busted a water line, we needed water. Anyway, it’s gonna drop down into the upper teens tonight and tomorrow with rain and snow.

So I’ve shut the main off again, but have no good way to drain the pipe without flooding the basement with 800 line feet worth of water. Granted I have a sump and drains, but I digress.

So I’m going to build a mini room around just the water pipe and stick a heat lamp in there. Hopefully that’ll do the trick until real framing starts Tuesday.

what about those electric tapes you can wrap around the pipe and plug it in?
oops, kept reading and saw this was already posted.
