I was digging around the other day and found the picture my father took of the WD-45 so he could post a picture ad in the local paper. This was the summer of 1999 and we just picked up a Ford 3600 diesel to replace the WD-45's duties. She didn't look to bad but sure was well used. Here is a picture of the tractor after I got is back in 2012. Sitting outside for a few years sure takes its toll.  |

| Yes it does take it's toll. Nice to see you got it back. I like seeing the old cultivator brackets on the front. |

Good looking 45! That's the way they should look after 40-50 years of work. Nothing wrong with that at all! Thanks for posting!

| I'm sure that it appreciates coming back home where it belongs. Still a very useful tractor. |
