I really need this trade

[strudeldog]

I have an 1954 Ford NAA tractor. Its the same as Jubilee, but the Old Ford guys get upset if you call it that as it's not a 1953 and the hood emblem is different, but I will throw in a vintage Jubilee emblem and the serial # not really legible so you will never know. Besides the 1954 is actually more rare. I really need to trade Hoping someone has a Kubota L3901 with front end loader they hate, or new would be fine. I will consider other makes models as well, but I like 4 wheel drive and FEL. If the tractor trade goes well maybe we can trade figs. I have some Celeste I would like to trade for a Genovese Nero AF or something along those lines. Thanks for considering.

Oh oh pick me, pick me!! Wait..dang it.. I dont have the Kubota.. But my dad has an old John deere tractor thingy that only drives in reverse! Will that work? It has a front end loader.. Not operable, but I saw it on the ground sooo Im sure its there.. Because I banged my shin on it really hard just last weekend! I know.. I understand.. But dang it Phil I was really hoping for those Celeste cuttings! Talk about dangling a carrot in front of my eyes.. Geeeez! 😉👍

Jamie,

Maybe we can work something out. A front end loader that ony work in reverse would be interesting to master. Neither of my trades will ever happen and I didn't expext them to I only added the Celeste note as I did not know if some folks would think I was serious about the Tractor trade. Some old Classic cars might trade for a nice new model, but for most part an old tractor is just that. My whole post was just an attempt to figure something out and it failed, but don't ask what as my mind doesn't work normally so I doubt folks would understand. I do need tractor but Craigslist has failed me so far and Willslist not working either so I guess I will just have to keep saving up.

Hi Phil I'm so sorry! I thought you were kidding, mostly because of the celeste cuttings for a GN part at the end, because I honestly don't know a thing about old classic cars (except I think they are super cool!) and I would actually love to own a Kubota myself! The funny thing is my dad's John Deere tractor that only works in reverse lol is from the 1960's and I believe it could be worth quite a bit of money to collectors if he were able to restore it. The parts on them old John Deere tractors are very hard to find though.. Hence why it is parked in his back lot by the storage building.. The site of my shin injury just last week..lol.. I feel so bad now.. Totally did not mean to poke fun at all.. I love to kid around but only in a good spirited way! So my brain is apparently not working either lol, I hope you will accept my apology 😔

[strudeldog]

I was kidding and you took it correct as such So nothing to be sorry about. What I was trying to figure out was my attempt to maybe why someone else might have been offended here. Don't try to follow my logic as I often don't think conventionally so somethings might appear as a riddle, but when I said my attempt failed it means I did not get response I fished for so my hypothesis was likley wrong. So how is that for a confusing statement. I could PM you what my intent was if you want, but don't worry there is no way I could take offense

Hilarious, I was like...whaaat?

I do have an orange tractor to trade you. It's a 1949 B Allischalmers. No loader though but it looks like a Kabota a little

[strudeldog]

I grew up with Allis Chambers I will have to check with my Dad what model. He still has it not sure if running. I know that hand crank could sure kick back at times.
