I changed a number of cylinders in bean fields. Sometimes just took the plugs out of the bad one so it could be flown back to the strip. After changing a cylinder in the field one day during run up I discovered a mag was out. Pilot said he didn't want to wait for me to go get another one and he'd just fly it home. Guess what went out on the way home? Yep, the other mag. He wrecked it trying to put it down. West Memphis area in the 80's.
I never flew in an Ag-Cat, but I spent two years dusting cotton in a Stearman. That was in the early 1960's in southern Missouri and Arkansas. This Cat needs a lot of work before it takes to the sky again.

Poor ol’ Ag Kitty. Many fond memories behind the stick of one. Super Ag Cat N8944H.
Hi I’m interested in the ag cat. How do I get in touch with the seller?
Strip all of that boom and spray equipment and you have a flying Porsche.
This hulk doesn't look airworthy
Yup, looks like it's been around the block a couple times, probably worked hard too. Tough ol birds tho!
It was somebody's pride and joy and means of making a living at one time. Sad to see
Some duct tape, bailing wire and a couple of throw pillows and she'd still cost more than my house...
Sure looks familiar
Is that for sale. Location sir

Shame to treat a hard working plane like that.
