I was just watching Classic Tractors(original air date 4-7-10) and there is my friend Ron Miller and his 30-60 Rumley Oil Pull. That tractor has valve guides in it made by yours truly. Ron donated one of his tractors to the Smithsonian. He also found and restored a threshing machine to go with it. While working on the threshing machine he found the serial number and thought he recognized it. It was a match to the tractor he was donating. He purchased the tractor years before finding the threshing machine and realized working on the thresher he had a set that were sold together as new. After shipping to the museum, he went out there and ran them, threshing grain before final clean up to be put on display.
