It was a beautiful day in Central Alabama and I decided to install the belt pulley on my SC I had ordered and received about two months ago. I work on it in my buddy's shop who has three of every tool Harbor Freight & Craftman sells. I removed the orbital plate over the housing and immediately noticed there was no drive gear there. Dang it! I decided to reinstall everything and would do an internet search this evening to see if I could find that gear, knowing it would take at least a week and several $ to receive it, a project for next weekend, or maybe the next. Well, shortly after pulling the SC out of the shop and putting her back to bed, an old tractor acquaintance I haven't seen in six months just happens to show up, we strike up a conversation about it and he says, "I gave your buddy the rear-end guts out of a Super C a couple of months ago. I'm almost sure there was a belt pulley in that stuff." Sure enough, we go searching and there is the exact gear I need for the job. I just wish he had shown up two hours earlier while I still had everything apart and could have done the installation then. Not complaining, though! Just glad he showed up when he did! As I keep a pretty good inventory of my buddy's stuff, I can't believe I didn't know he had what I needed, and I can't believe James showed up when he did to tell me about it! Life is good.

Some of my fondest memories of these visits are those of learning to drive a tractor at the helm of Uncle Cecil’s 1948 Farmall Super A. Uncle Cecil was the second owner of this wonderful little tractor, but it was almost as though he had adopted an infant. The original owner was a man from Minnesota who bought her from a local dea
