I was about to post this and saw you already. My 5th year going and my 4th year showing tractors need to make it to more show this year.

Same here, I found the Friday night exhibitors only to be well worth the camp out!

I plan camping out this year I think I will list my SS15 with attachments for sale while I'm there I need a bigger tractor now.

The 1988 JD 165 Hydro, and NOT JD Trailer will be up for sale. He approved this.

 

[bbuckler]

I might pay for a flea market booth I have all those NOS parts I could sell.

Looks like I won't need to borrow a bigger trailer. Got them out this morning and gave them a good soapy bath, then a wax. Decided to try and load them up. Roper went blower first, and that didn't work, the JD wouldn't fit. Tried the JD first, and the Blower wouldn't clear, so I tried backing the Roper, just spun at the top of the ramp. Got a come along hooked up and got them to squeeze on there. not enough room for the cart, but it can go in the back of the truck, and I can put the cooler on the trailer. I also made a better pin for the cart as it rattled a lot. Put a peice of rubber tube over a pin, and drilled a hole in it for a clip.

I will only be bringing two again this year the 110 isn't going to be done in time.

After a dew miles, you'll have more room on there!

 

[bbuckler]

Going Saturday to pay and look at where they are putting me for the flea market. I plan on trying to sell off all but two garden tractors plus a bunch of parts to go towards buying something a little bigger.

 

[larrybl]

I'm going early Saturday also, will set up camp in the same area I was last year. That was a GOOD spot.

 

[bbuckler]

I guess the ss15 isn't going up for sale the starter/gen went out.

A Boy and his Tractor.

Pricing parts for my booth at the tractor show.

 

[bbuckler]

30% of rain Saturday I hope it misses us. I got alot of money invested in going to this show this year.

Man! I know why they let Exhibitors in for free and feed them! Spent most of the day loading up. Got the trailer loaded and moved by 9:00, then finished mowing the back yard. Took off at 2:00 to pick my Grandson up. Got home at 5:00 and started loading the truck. I had made a list of stuff to load eariler in the week, and it was a bear finding some of the things, but got it done. Checked the trailer lights and all are working. Plan to leave around 8:00 in the morning, one stop for ice and we should be there around 9:30. I am taking three cameras this year.

 

[bbuckler]

I will be there at 5 tomorrow to bring a load to my flea market spot. I got to wait around on someone that is supposed to buy my SS15 which means I might be able to pick up a bigger tractor at the show.

 

[bbuckler]

I sold one thing at my flea market space which was the 16/6 I won't try the flea market next year I will ebay or sell my parts on facebook. I also only saw Larry once but I got busy on my tractor hunt I didn't get to talk to him. We had rain a couple of times the last round of rain was hard and everybody started packing up probably why the show wasn't as busy this year. Next year I should have some stuff finish to show again.

I spent most of my time at the flea market area. It made not as fun for me so next year I won't sell
