Hello all = final update. Got Lady Bell moved to her final destination  ffcool
Well, plan A-D did not work or not safe (moving with tractor, small wrecker etc. etc.) so decided on calling a heavy-duty wrecker (cost about $700, reasonably I think, included the pick-up of second cutter head as well). See pictures. Previous owner chained-up the boom, interestingly it held up well (chain under high tension though). Previous owner really knew what he was doing.
Towed Lady Bell the last 100 yards on my property with my tractor. Challenging and an hour but successfully got it to my barn. Same for the second heavy cutter head. Used the quick connect 3 point at my hitch and chained it up, dragging it along the 100 yards. Glad I've called the heavy-duty wrecker, I would have damaged my good ol' tractor trying to haul it 2 miles...
Closing this thread with these comment and photos. I appreciate everyone's response, advice and opinions! And hope my comments may help someone to move their Bells too...
