Looks in good shape for 81 years old. Great story.

ksnow:
Very cool tractor.

We had a parade of pre 1960 tractors come through town over the weekend, almost 50 of them all chuggin along. Neat stuff.

Thanks Bob
Thanks Paul, I remember this tractor sitting in the corner of our machine shed when I was a youngster. When I was very young I'd sit on it's steel seat and pretend I was driving it. As I got older more "stuff" got piled around and on top of it until we couldn't even sit on it anymore. The 1976 bicentennial probably saved it. We decided to rescue the old gal. Maybe if the next couple generations give her a little TLC she'll last at least another 81 years.
Thanks Pappy, I love all The Deere young and old. Although I gotta admit all these sensors on the new ones can get real frustrating at times. Often wondered what Mr. Deere would think of his company and what it's done to feed the world. Sure come a long way since his first plow.
Thanks Kyle. I remember my dad telling me that before I could walk I could make the perfect sound of a two cylinder engine.

There is certainly something about that sound , POW---,pow,pow,pow )P( )P(
 I had an old Super C International I used to skid logs. My son was about
six months old when he became a wild child for that sound. It would remind
me of a spring time Ruffed Grouse. My boy also hung tight to the vacuum
cleaner while his mom did the floors. Never met a woman attracted to that sound.
