GROUP 3 Photos of an old abandoned thresing showgrounds (not too far from where my husband grew up).
*I do apologize as some photos were not as clear as I would have liked...but I think they are still kinda neat. **I did reduce the photo pixels by 45 percent, so I hope they are not to pixel heavy for people to open them.
Really nice old gent, Art, had a show on his own farm for many years. My husband worked the show a few years when he was 19-20 years old. Husband bought his 1936 B JD from this guy.
Age and deteriorating health made the man stop holding the shows. In 1979 he had "The Sale of the Century" and sold most of his collection. Last year his widow passed away and the rest of the estate was auctioned off. We were fortunate to connect with the auctioneer to preview the sale items (trying to decide between that auction or a trip to an out-state junkyard). And we asked if we could look at the old showgrounds while we were there... and as always, I had my camera handy!

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
