Ok,heres a new post! yesterday we moved the chicken truck into the shop for the winter! Today I started building the new insulated trap door for the cieling! Tomorrow at noon the farier comes to trim the mules and donkey feet! Then I have to blow the outside water down and pump it full of propylyne glycol ( there are 500' of lines down to the barn). Then if there is any daylight left I have to fork the snow plow down and into the shop to see what it needs to work another year! Now you know why I'm not doing anything on the car!

Those trailer supports remind me of a real craigslist post I found up here about two years ago. A guy built a chicken coop -not a sedan :)- on an old 8x8 snowmobile trailer and had it for sale.
Thought it was neat that you could take the chickens on vacation with you and have fresh eggs each morning!

Sounds like you've got your hands full but I'll bet you enjoy playing around with that New Holland.

I got the NH in '04 when it became apparent that the 73 ford we had wouldnt cut it up here.Its got almost 2000 hrs on it now,everything that was cleared,stumped,graded, and built was done with it. Ive got a subframe mounted back hoe that has been almost run to death up here digging 2 acres of stumps!Neatest thing about the NH ,and the big reason I bought the brand,is the super steer front axel.Its articulated and when the steering knuckles reach full lock,the whole axel begins to pivot on a huge set of ball joints. The result is90% zero turn steering. The other thing is that it was the only brand that allowed front axel lock to the rear axel.Its really been a good unit.Its almost time though to mount up the 6' snow blower and chain it down for winter.

Sorry, trbomax, I'm a city boy. That looks like a whole lot of hard work, but it's all Greek to me. (no disrespect meant to anyoune out there who may be Greek) ;D

It IS a whole lot of hard work,and the older i get,the harder it becomes!If I didnt have the equipment and machinery,we couldnt be here doing this.
