JD Cover Thingy

Post by AirborneX4Special »

Ebay item #261169934437

Don't know if it's real but it's real old looking. Would not be much wider than a snowmobile. Anyone near Owosso, MI might want to go have a look at this prize.

It looks like the pop-top cover that is on some trailers. Usually they are white. Looks like someone painted one and slapped some decals on it.

Certainly is odd. The trailers were black, so why would the glass be painted green? I bet this was not JD factory, but as Matt says painted, decaled and sold through the dealer. Just my speculation, I don't have any proof.
