“Cleaning up the farm. Here we have a rare, Rare Willy’s jeep P.T.O. auger post hole digger for Willy’s hitch system.  I bought this to build my pole barn with but never used it.  I was going to mount it as 3 point hitch. The p.t.o. shaft will need some oil on the knuckle from sitting.  Gears are good. Will be perfect for your Willy’s vehicle. Note: what you see is what you are getting:Gear drive, auger, drive shaft, and long boom bar. This will require some fabrication for your application.”

Not sure what this will take to restore.

“Roper PTO Post Hole Digger. I bought this with the intention of modifying it to fit a Farmall with fasthitch but found a factory fasthitch digger so I have no need for this machine. I have not used it but it seems to be in working order. It has a serial number tag but it is faded and I could not get it to show up in the pictures. Take a look at the pictures and let me know if you have any questions – I am happy to help. Cash only please and sold as is.”
