The CowBoard Online Tractor Fellowship Club is planning a restoration project to benefit the WI Archives. We will start on Wednesday July 23 with a non-running tractor, disassemble, overhaul the motor, replace brakes and clutch, overhaul magneto and carburetor, clean, assemble, and paint and will have it ready to auction to 2009 Red Power Roundup Show Attendees at the close of the event. The proceeds of the sale will be donated to the WI Historical Society to help them continue to research & make available online the extensive resources of the McCormick Collection. There will be a knowledgeable tech representative present each day to help guide spectators through the process and to assure a quality and correct restoration. This should be an informative and educational as well as entertaining experience that you will not often see repeated anywhere
I just got off the phone with Phil Reid of HiYield Productions (the firm that produces "This Week in AgriBusiness" for Max Armstrong We would like to do a DVD video of the project. It will take at least one, probably two camera men for most of the 3 days and then extensive editing to make a 1st class video. So, what do you guys want? Would you pay $30 postage paid for a DVD of the project? How many could we sell 200 - 300? How long of a video would you want? one hour? two hours? or a detailed set that might include 6 hours split up in detailed segments, Engine rebuild, Carb rebuild, Magneto, cluth, Painting, etc? It sounds like it's a go if we can determine what we want and need. I would like to be able to promise Phil sales of at least a couple hundred before we start shooting. That would go a long way to convincing him to take on the job.
