There won't be a day for anybody who ever visited this forum before.....that won't think of Hugh MacKay.
I have an envelope containing some 3 point drawings that I got from Hugh less than a month ago. He had sent copies once before and I misplaced them....so he sent more. I sent him a 140 vegetable cultivator manual so he could make himself a copy....which he did. The thing about Hugh......obviously, he didn't think about dying, but living.

The Farmall forum ought to be renamed the Hugh MacKay forum as a tribute to him...lest we ever forget his down to Earth contributions and gritty opinions.

That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
