Could someone tell me who built this cab please?
It doesn’t do much for me either; I’m tempted to remove it as well. Aside from wind protection, and a little shade, it doesn’t offer much in the luxury department. Tractor originated from Cornwall Equipment Co. Washington. Thanks, JM.

I think that cab is absolutely beautiful. I'd tear it apart in the woods but it would be cool on a ag Cat. You spoiled guys probably want air conditioning. All I ever want is heat.

Juiceman I’ve seen those before, but I can’t tell you who built them. Good looking D4D by the way. My cousin has a 84J with a Harold Electric cab. They were built in Walla Walla.

I’ll get some video of me plowing tomorrow, here is a picture to tease.

Roger: Us tough guys don't need no stinkin' AC. An open ROPS, fiberglass top, or even an umbrella is great around here. I have too many aquaintences that spend more time trying to keep their guys in air conditioned comfort than what it's worth (IMO). This thing has integrated heating though. Just keep the doors closed on any day over 60 degrees and it will cook you alive, that is, if the deafening noise doesn't kill you first! My stereo system is the sound of the pads pitter padding across the soil....
Next time you come by, WE might just load it in the back of your vehicle. Your new ice fishing house would be easier to find, it being yellow LOL.
I don't know why I'm complaining though, I've probably driven this one less that 30 minutes since I've had it.
Bruce: You are a real "Tease" for sure! I wanted to go turn some dirt for fun prior to our latest soaking. What's all that brown stuff clinging to the shoes? I thought only my yard had mud on it! That really is a nice B model. Mine is a 44A#10,111. I'm guessing the turbo is factory, not sure if just for "normalization" or for more grunt at lower elevations.

The eldest and I did some plowing today, I must say this B is one of the nicest cats I’ve driven. Annie drove it a couple rounds, I didn’t get any pictures of Annie running it since I was helping her. Annie took some pictures and videos. Here are some pictures the video will be along in a while.

Juiceman, my SN is 44A 6890.


Enjoy
BP.

Bruce That's one nice D6b you have. I farmed with a 6b for 12years or so very dependable tractors mine had no turbo and I was amazed what it pulled for its size would run it 12 hrs a day on 35 to 40 gals of fuel

Juiceman that D4d is sweeeet ! Skinner
