The tractor was in the heifer runout shed, on fire when called in from a driver on the other road. My cousin noticed the fire before the fire trucks arrived, pulled it out of the shed with a pickup truck & chain. He put the fire out as the firetrucks arrived. That motor's crisp. The insurance has totalled it. Almost anything is repairable BUT at what price?

My grandfather bought this farm in 1899, my uncle is the current owner.

(Interesting coincidence, the shed was built when the 'old barn' was struck by lightening when I was a kid. They got the animals out but all the equipment on the other side was lost when the barn burned to the ground.)

I don't know how to do that FB stuff.

That sucks it may be fixable if the insurance company does a close inspection and what they find all wrong with it. To me it looks like 2555 with a 245 loader. Around here in the summer the SPFH and combines burn up along with plenty of tractors and skidloaders in the winter months. Most happen because of dirt and grime that builds up on the machines.
