Hello from Missouri
Hello everyone! I just joined and would like to introduce myself. My name is Jeff and we are in Missouri. I grew up on a farm and now live on 16 acres with my wife and children in the hills close to the Mississippi River. I enjoy working with old tractors and implements. I’ve been working with row crop tractors for several years now, 4 Farmalls and a Case. We just acquired our first GT, a Case 648 with a D100 backhoe. It hasn’t run in 10 years and my son and I are in the process of bringing it back to life. I look forward to sharing what we’ve done to get it running and learning from your knowledge and experience! Thanks for letting me join you guys! I appreciate it!

Welcome Jeff! Sounds like a lovely place you are located in. That's a great machine you have acquired, one of the rarest Case models. Lots of great folks here with a lot of knowledge if you need any help. Post some photos when you can!

Hi Jeff, welcome to CCIGT, it's good to have you here. The loader tractors are some great work horses in a small package. We have a few here with the loader tractors and backhoes. There's help here if you need it, and we all love a good restore and keeping these little tractors going. Hope you enjoy your time here and join in the fun.

Welcome to the forum Jeff, looking forward to seeing your 648 in action or being taken care of. Your Farmall's really look in great shape! Hope you will enjoy your time here!

Re: Hello from Missouri
Welcome to the forum Jeff. Nice looking fleet . I really like the 47 Cub . You obviously have the skill set needed for the 648 . All the manuals and first hand info is here for sure. A few guys here have loaders .

Re: Hello from Missouri
Welcome to the CCIGT forum Jeff. Your place sounds like heaven to me. I'm sure your 648 lbh will be a nice tractor to have in your collection. I have a 644 lbh and find it very helpful in saving my back. At least that's what I told the wife when I purchased it! I look forward to reading your future posts and your 648 lbh and other tractors you own.
Keep the Peace
