I am not going to restore it to MFG specs instead I want to add my own twists to her.For example.The battery is held in place by twine so I am going to make a diamond plate box for it to sit in.

The man I bought it from said he replace the clutch shortly before he left it to sit.He said he never had time to work on it.

It's sitting on 1 front wheel.he gave me a whole new front end for it.

The radiator cap wont tighten so I need a new one.

The gas tank is full of old gas so I need to dump it and change the plugs out.I am shocked I got it running and so was the farmer.He told me it was worth at least double what I paid since I got it running.I hope he is not angry.

I am going to take the tin off and blast it and repair the few rust holes that are there.

There is no guard over the PTO so I am going to fab one for it.

He has a 1930's deere crawler in his back 40 that he wants to get rid of also.He said it need a new head.

The exaust manifold on this H has gobs of weld all over it and I wonder if I should replace it or try to grind the welds to the contour of the original steel?

I got stuck in the middle of the highway the other night I could not get her into gear.Scared me like no tomorrow being foggy out and cars cruising at 70 through there.

As soon as a car came within a 1/5 mile I finally got her to go.So it has sat since.I think it's just a pin that holds the shifter in place.I noticed it was lose.

LenNH-My grandpa who happens to be 76 grew up on a Minnesota farm has lots of stories about those "old" tractors.He was there when I came pulling up and he had a grin as big as my 2 year old did.

Thanks guys.

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Corn in Southern Wisconsin: The Early Years - by Pat Browning. In this area of Wisconsin, most crops are raised to support livestock production or dairy herds in various forms. Corn products were harvested for grain, and for ensilage (we always just called it 'silage'). Silo Filling Time On dairy farms back in the 30's and into the first half of the 40's, making of corn silage was done with horses pulling a corn binder producing tied bundles of fresh, sweet-smelling corn plants, nice green leaves with ear; the ...
