We had the River Junction tractor ride today..at River Junction, Iowa (Between Lone Tree and Riverside) There were about 152 tractors and we went 62 miles. There were 2 D-21's , several D-14's, a D-19, a D-17 I think, a few WD 45's, my WD and a couple of WC's. Nice to see the Allis turn out. Ron Sexton had several of his tractors there.

I like the 'seat' photos. Seems more like I 'could' have been there from that vantage! Thanx for posting these!

Looks like you guys had a good day, even if it was a bit toasty. How many miles you guys run? Thanks for the pics.

That would have been a better day than the sale I went to that was just around the corner from my place. They had a D19D that was supposed to run, but had a knock like a rod bearing. It wouldn't start when they went to sell it, tin was rough, and it still brought $1200. The tires were useable and it had a forklift mast on the back that sold separately. They had the rear lift and pto shaft off for the forklift. Somehow that big thick casting got broken. Sounds like a lot of $$ for a tractor that has had a rough life.
