Took our ol girl for a spin the other day.
I kinda like the shadow of the older tractors, while clippin down the road.

I am envious. when I take ours for a drive, it's just the pieces in the back of the truck. Not QUITE the same. It must of been a nice drive good weather and all. It is a nice restoration.

Thanks for the kind comments!
Not bad for a junk cell phone picture? haha
Thats the familys WC, we painted it about 6 years ago now.
Josh, the oil pressure seems to have dropped a little, so I am a little concerned. I am running just below the normal line. Hoping someone knows whats going on with that?
Also, its a 1938, just before the style change. This one has a detachable front crank. Not stationary. ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |
