Couldn't pass it up. Super Dexta, with tires that hold air, all parts there for $800. One hour from where I live. This is my third Dexta. Turns over. Guy couldn't get it to start. Fuel line is missing. I didn't have the heart to tell him...
May be a piece of Junk, may run. Pick it up Friday.
I think I have the fever.

Hauled it home. Fella loaded it with a large front wheel loader. Engine is loose, sitting long enough till steering very stiff, however tie-rods are not at all worn. Need lots of lube & service. Lots. Honeysuckle vines all over engine and radiator area. Tin all there. Live PTO, diff lock. Fuel lines were in the tool box. Tires hold air. Brake and clutch free. Nice super dexta emblem and solid H/Ls.
With this one, I am reminded of the old show "the six million dollar man - we can rebuild him, faster, stronger... This is the first Dexta I have seen lately with the panel under the hood at Left rear below primer bulb. Has two foot rest, and usual stuff, As usual, the shifter is worn and it locks up. Now that would suprise you would it.
I have it running when I make some time for it, no hurry. Another Super Dexta. Of all my tractors, my other Super Dexta has become my favorite, strong, agile and efficient and dependable. I'd love a fleet of them for the farm. Fella can't have too many tractors. Sometimes find myself with all tractors at a worksite, one pulling trees, one with a loader, one with a trailer of wood, one with a rotary cutter, and needing still needing another (toy) with a blade or some implement that takes too much time to attach. Ah, toys.

Now that had me laughing my you-know-what off! Good way to start a Saturday morning! Thanx!
That's not up to the fella - it's up to the missus . There's a bunch of guitars in my house, and still I'm tempted to bring in new ones. If not for the missus, the house would look like a guitar shop .WayneB wrote:Fella can't have too many tractors.
Can't you convince Wilma that a "Fender" goes around the fireplace to stop the children getting at the fire and you can't have too many safety measures!
Your just not trying Oscar.
