Here are a couple of pics of two unusual tractors that arrived at my shop yesterday for some TLC. You don't see many of these around. Red one is a '30 Eagle 6A with Hercules engine. Green one is a Nichols & Shepard 20-40 with a Beaver engine (actually a re-badged Lauson). They need a few repairs and some tuning.

Eagles are down right hard luggers. One at a plowing demonstration a litle bigger than that was hooked to a 5 bottom plow. Even in the hard spots she'd smoke a little but they couldn't stop her.

Yah, Charlie, you probably could. Lots of jobs in this part of the country and not enough people to fill them.
