Hello from Webster NY
Hi guys, been into Case high wheels since 2008 and now have three in my stable. A 1978 446 short frame that has become my go to winter tractor fitted with wheel weights, loaded front wheels, B&S 18hp engine and electric PTO, 48" updated snow caster. A 1987 444 that I am rebuilding from scratch from the frame up that has been languishing in my basement for several years now due to ill health but is now probably 80% complete and worthy of a paint job this year. I also have just been given a 1981 446 by a neighbor that just has a starting problem but work faultlessly last year and ran really sweat. It is ALL original with the exception of the solenoid and has a deck that is to die for.. I am also into graphic design and over the years created detailed and very accurate parts drawings of most parts for the 446/446 models. My current project is the Case cab and that has been in the works for a few years too long due to my illness but is probably 60% along now.
So some of you will know me (ras101) from other case forums as I am very vocal about transmission oils, etc. - Gordy, Harry, and others I look forward to interacting with you again.

Re: Hello from Webster NY
Thanks Eugen. Wish I had known about this site earlier.; Really think the other one, that will remain nameless has lost its way and that's a pity. Site owners really need to listen to their members before changing their site function. This site to me seems much more usable as a sharing site of ideas which I am sure members here want. Thank you for the welcome and I hope I can help other members here too.

@ras101 What you say resonates with many of us and that's why I took it upon me to make a site that is the way WE like it, not some suits that don't care about us.ras101 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 14, 2022 11:56 am Thanks Eugen.

Great to hear from you Ray, I hope all is going well for you. Sounds like you have some irons in the fire, a man after my own heart. Glad you joined this site and look forward to seeing pics of your GT's in the stable. I rarely get to Rochester but if I do I'll give you a shout!

Re: Hello from Webster NY
Hi Ray, welcome to CCIGT, sure glad you joined us, I think you'll fit right in. Great group here and we definitely have a little fun too.
It's good you're feeling better and getting back to your tractors.
I only have one tractor, a 93 4118 that I bought new, but I've been waiting for the right older Case to come along.
