Grandsons using the Model C to power the Surge milking machine. If you look closely you can see the radiator shutters inside the grill. Thank you Paul B   |

| What's the deal? Just drive the milker to Betsy and do the deed? No stanchen or barn needed. |

| Dad had a hose that ran from the tractor to the vacuum line in the barn for when we lost power. IIRC, we could only run two milkers, instead of the four we usually used, but it was a lot better than milking by hand! |

| My dad had a milking machine petcock on the CA intake manifold also. It was used every couple years, usually after a lightning storm knocked out the power. I can't recall if it kept one or two milking machines going. |

Glad to help with the shutters What are those side frame mounts for? They look to be quite substantial. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

This tractor came to me with a bodacious front end loader that a previous owner had installed; it kinda-sorta worked but is really too heavy for a Model C. I left the mounts on to function as engine weights.
