its all there but the rear-end
I just drove 200 miles to pick up this Bolens.
Let me start off saying, it was buried for 30 yrs., in a hoarder's house-in the basement. This item was one of the very last to leave the house. The hoarder's son said his dad completely took apart this tractor (along with other tractor's) and motorcycles etc. The father took all of his tractors apart so he could make room for MORE tractors. He built a lean-to against the house that was packed with tractor parts! The shame of it all-all of it went to the scrap yard about 3 years ago. Even the rear-end for the 600. When the son started cleaning out the house, he had know idea what was there or what they had. The son said you couldn't even walk thru any of the doors to the house, it was so packed!
So now I'm saving It.... I will have more pictures when I unload the car and separate all the parts.

we all collect. But I hope not to the point the house is falling down on them.

Only have 10 and they all stay in a closed building. All in working dress but the one RAM which has been refurbished and is the granddaughters tractor. Work on them doing what they need to keep running. The White in the shop now will get new paint as the tin work is totally rust covered. We all have our own opinion as to what our tractors are worth but the fact is they are worth what ever someone is willing to pay on any given day.
