You Boys Said It Would Happen...........

Howdy, boys.

I began participating on this forum two years ago - when I bought a Super A. Several of you told me then that old Farmalls were addictive and that I would end up with several more. "HAW!", thought I. "Not me! Real men need only one small Super A."

Then, I bought a second Super A, (if one is good, two are better, right?). Then, a Super H, stage II. It was for the bush hog - don't you see? So, still, I was in denial.

Two weeks ago, I sold one of the Super A's. Proof there is no addiction here, I thought.

Well, I went to KC,MO last week for a meeting I had to attend, and before I went to the meeting, I ventured up near the Iowa border, and...... well.... uh..... (Gee, honey, I can explain everything.) I accidentally bought this 1953 Super M stage II with beautiful original sheet metal, power steering, a remote valve, donaldson pre-cleaner, flat-back headlites, red/white combination tail light, still 6v, new battery box, excellent grill insert, fresh engine rebuild and what appears to be original paint and decals. Mama Mia! Ay-yi-yi!

As usual, I probably paid too much, but it sure runs great. Does not jump out of gear, steers fine. No whine. No visible leaks. Even the clutch pedal does not have side play. "I be done gone to Farmall Heaven!" (Yeah, my wife, Miss Martha, will see to that.)

Anyway, if Miss Martha does not actually kill me (and she won't), I'm going to leave it in its "faded glory" (chalky pinkish red paint).

You guys were sure right....... Evidently, I'm hooked.
