Hey, I bought me a new to me 1978 JD 762 at auction a couple week ago.I been busy working on a turn around and haven't had time to go over it. It has 5200hrs on it and ran good on the drive home. I have phase two of my pond project to finish. I hope I have no major problems. I am going to try to post
Clean JD for a 78' sounds like you did good
Nice machine. Keep a close eye on the 'slides' for the ejector floor, depending one soil type they wear fairly quickly.
