Welcome Abe.

I don't see why there's a problem. Buy an old Case, fix it up, buy another. No Problem! :grin:

Thanks Bill,
I don't see any problems either then!
I'm a mid 30's father of four boys under 5, started with my 220 (AKA lil220 in other areas), then found another local C/I guy, bought his 444, sold the 220 and that's where I'm at now. Really appreciate the tractor, not yet a collector, more of a user. Hope to get a cosmetic freshening on my old 444 soon. Mechanically it's still in great shape, just not the looker it once was.
Wife rolls her eyes when I talk about it, but she's accepted it now. I explained the wonderment of using an explosion to pressurize a liquid that I can command at my will to cut my grass and plow my drive. All with a machine that is older than me.

Growing up, Neighbor had a 70's 4XX, and I never thought it was anything special. Now after a little over a year of Case ownership I know better.

(went with Old Abe because a 446 is in my future, and I learned that lil ol 220 may evolve into lil ol 444, etc and I don't want to confuse myself)

Thanks Drew, been busy. Had our 4th in November.

Glad to know where the diehard's congregate. Just happy to be granted access to the knowledge and passion these machines deserve.

Welcome Eric! You will get the help you need here. :thumbup: GT looks pretty darn nice in your Avatar. I have the eagle label in my office and I am still debating where to put it-decisions! Look forward to talking with you on the site! :222: :446: Best regards, Rich
