Dan; Put me in for one, Thanks Mark

Thanks Dan; I'm Sexty One and catching up to Dick !!! Mark

Dan; She is A keeper. I have had it 12 years now. Since I started doing this one I found that tractor restoration and collecting is huge. Some have 100 tractors and everyone has their favorites. I would like more but no room at the inn. Later Mark

I'm calling this one done. Looks good for A 64 year old tractor. Winter is loosing it's grip, nice out today 70 degrees. She fired right up. I still got to put A timing light on it and adjust the governor. This was A cake walk compared to the Plymouth. Later Mark

Thanks Dan for all you do and all you have done !!! Mark

A little more, ran the wire harness and started on the hood, static timed the distributor, bent and fitted the fuel line, dash back together. Mark

I have been to Ridgeway A few times, nice town, lots of bears. I would like to meet him and see Greenie in person. I will take mine for A meet and greet. Mark

Dan; I had the same exhaust tip question when I did mine. I went with straight out the back only because I was, and already had exhaust tips. Otherwise I would have gone the way Dick did his, it looks great. To each his own. I have seen some angle to each side as well. As for the empty garage that i...

Dan; I like it !!!! My uncle in Florida had A model "A" and his daily driver was A 58 Chevy Apache pick-up. The mileage might be 17,000 you never know. Check door hinge wear, brake pedal wear etc. Some early titles had the engine serial # on the title as well, could be the original engine....

Dan; I know the feeling. When I got mine to body shop for paint it did stay inside, but I got a lot of yada yada as well.
