Look What I Found

Post by MikeMc »

Not sure how common it is to come across these manuals but I was a little surprised to find one in such good condition. They had one for my '68 but since nothing is original I only got one for my sons '65 D100.

Matt, ya I was happy to come across it. I've looked on ebay but never saw any original books. I also got one for my John Deere B that's lightly used and he charged $40 for it. :pale

Thanks, M-

Wow...is that actually an original or a reprint? I bought a reprint off Ebay for my 65....looks pretty original though.

I've run across quite a few on ebay but most are not in that kind of condition.

Can't read it too well, but it looks like it says "reprint" right on the price sticker.

It could have been purchased new at Bishko Books perhaps? :thinking

I had the pleasure of meeting with him and his wife plus another Swepty feller from here back in late April. He was doing very well except he has gone to the dark side for awhile. Russ, hope your project is doing well and say hi to your wife for me.
