JD 440 ICD Let the projects begin!

Post by JD440ICD2006 » Sat Aug 04, 2012 9:35 pm

Now that the 440 ICD is running, I have a growing list of projects.
The first one is trenching around my sheds to drain rain water better.
Next will be cutting deer hunting lanes and removing some stumps.
Oh what fun!!!!!

Thanks Howard. It is obvious that I have not taken the time to paint it and doll it up. I will eventually get to that and will take it to a few local shows.
My main concern was getting it mechnically sound and rebuilt.
The 440 is my favorite for many reasons!

I bet your having a blast working the ole girl. That 6 way is so nice I bet.
Have you had much rain? The dirt looks kind of dry.
Were finally getting some up here. June and July were terribly dry.

I am not sure what our rain deficeit is currently, but our otherwise flowing creek is simply a wet spot.
That red clay was tough. It made the old girl smoke a little which was actually fun.
