I got this nice e-mail from an elderly lady who sold me the basket case C farmall that I just completed a rebuild on and started it for the first time. I sent her a video of the rebuild process and first-start. Her husband, who farmed with the tractor passed away a number of years ago and the abandoned farm house, etc., later burned down, leaving only a crusty old tractor behind. Her letter made the rebuild even more gratifying than it already was. Thought you all would enjoy it, too:
** Tony, What a wonderful job you did on the Farmall !
Now I have some history to show my kids and grandkids on what their dad / grandpa had to use on the farm. The story and video will be great for the family genealogy I am working on. I love finding genealogy like you love fixing up tractors.
Now I can show them all, that info on their family back in the olden times AND an old tractor made new can be useful !
