Yeah I came back too the woods for a bit, But wasn't makin the $$.. But I got a Job with a Utility Construction Company, and they want some Custom Equipment Built. Already Bought a '82 518 (Shooks that was sitting on the Bush Ranch) And now I'm in need of the JD's to build more of these:

And want to mount one of these 650 Texoma Drills on the Bogie Skidder:

Started off lookin for 2 648's and found a helluva deal and looks like i'll end up with 3 648's for a 100k.. Now i'm hunting for 3 Sets of Tires.. gonna have a good chunk of change in this before too long..lol
I've got a line on the 648's and may have one on the tiger cat tandem skidders. I did message you with my email but never heard back.
