I am still helping AC pullers in the area. This pulling season, I have been working with A guy on A 8030 AC. He ended the year in first place points in one class & 2nd in an other class, not bad for the first year out. STONEY PIPES

That old WD-45D was the beginning of a long learning period in my life, as time goes on the, learning continues. In the last years I pulled it, I won the points championship in the 4,500 lb. super-stock class MSTPA. At that time it was on gasoline with 2 compound turbochargers, 247 cubic inch. The rules changed, to not allow 2 turbo in the 4,500 lb. class. Knowing the power-train, wouldn't stay together, in 5,500 lb. class. At that point I
quit pulling it.

Henry is still at it, at 87 years old. He sold the Henderson Implement Company name, but still owns the old property and buildings. Him & his son John still have A trucking & repair business at that location. Working on older tractors, & selling parts for them.

Amazing! He gave me the first advice I got on how to fix the govenor on a WD we had, back in 1958. Had no idea what it would lead to. By the way, do you remember your dad giving a little black and tan pup to probably the reddest headed kid you ever saw? Didn't have any coon dog in him but if it ran up a tree he treed it. Treed his first squirrel at 5 mons. Take care. Leon Cmo
