In about 1962 the Allis dealer about 15 miles from home, said I have a JD A some loggers bought and never paid for it is sitting on a farm real close to you, go look at it and make me an offer.
I stopped at the house and talked to the old retired farmer that owned the place he told me yeah those guys cut down all my Walnut trees even some that they were told not to. He said the tractor quit on them so they just left it set where it stopped. He went on to say that they never paid him a dime and never cleaned up the limbs and branches just took the big logs and disappeared.
I walked down to where the old man pointed to, the tractor was setting in a creek crossing with water up to the knees and one tire was completely flat I lost interest in that tractor in a hurry.
It was an old flywheel crank job and I wasn’t about to try getting it started in knee deep water. Called the dealer and told him he better bring a winch truck and get his tractor if he wanted it.
I just wasted a little bit of time so it didn't hurt me but it sure was a bad deal for the Old farmer and the Dealer.
