WILLIE; Need Your Help @ Ponte's Playday

[7upuller]

Willie,

Need your help on Oct. 14th & 15th, 2007. Ponte is going to raise his damn, and we've decided to make a Play Day out of it. Any one is welcome. We will get a few meetings together to get things orginized. We want to have as much fun as Herb's Play Day and fine tune some of the positive feedback we heard.

Come down to the next Cat Night, and we'll go over it. The site is perfect. Plenty of dirt to move, and fields to plow. He even has a lot of stumps to push around.

Can't wait to hook up the 60 can scraper Ed Akins let me get at an auction sale in San Jose last week for a $100 bucks. -glen

Ponte's Play Day will be held in Petaluma, Ca. Will post maps later date.

I forgot should I bring the 22 down so it can be restored for the raffle prize at next yrs show or is group too busy? Ill donate a good straight runnig tractor the group can do the work, Ill get John Hahn to donate new seats , Geo Rankin any sheet metal we need and ACMOC for decals and YOU can have the tax write off. for a $5000 tractor

[Willie]

Opps wrong tractor your not getting the 20

[7upuller]

Bring it down, it'll be fun fixing it up. Had to work last Cat Night, but It was worth it. The job I was estimating we landed, some 24,000 tons of asphalt fot the new Cat paver.

Ponte's Pond will be fun. We will have some old cat & cans running. I'll bring the Cat 60 over and let Art pull a 4 x 4 sheep foot with it.

Haul down a few tractors each Cat Night and we'll stock up.

Hey Willie,

Need help locating a nice D6-9u to pull the 60 scraper. Any leads would be great. Better yet, can you find a 6-9u with a rubber tired under carriage conversion. That would be so cool to pull a can behind one.

[TractorDon]

Glen, i have one for ya. D6 9U factory direct start 24050 if i recall. Needs pins and bushings, rail height is 3.750 Sprockets are shot, pads are poor, rollers look good, front idlers look good. I will never get to this tractor. Get a hold me. Don tractordond2d4d6@yahoo.com

Don
Does that d6 have a beegee pump? It looks like it has a rudder control.

[TractorDon]

Hi Nick, yes it does. I have a spare if you need one.Would need to be gone through though. Don

[nickspalding]

Hi Don,
I actually have a pallet stacked with those things. I was just making sure my eyes weren't deceiving me. Just out of curiosity, how bad is the undercarriage on that D6? Also I am casually looking for a disc, chisel, and ring roller all in the 8ft to 10ft variety. I know there are a lot of those smaller implements up there in orchard country, if you come across what I am looking for please shoot me a email. Thanks.
Nick
