I do this from time to time and it doesn't matter that brand it is, It all depends on the deal. It dose not matter the time of year it is but I do like to do it over the winter so I have something to look forward to. The last tractor I got going and made look good was an Oliver 1555 gas that I really bought for parts to fix 3 other's I have. Once I got it home and took a close look at it I had to try to get it running again and I did. Now this tractor was all original with good strait sheet metal but had 3 tires that were shot and real dull paint. Thee tires later and lots of elbow grease she was running and lookin good again with no paint work because it did not need it. Now I have fixed them and repainted them and sold them or kept them to use on the farm. A trailer queen I will never own or build because that's not for me, I like to see a good lookin tractor in the field doing what it was made to do. I have never lost money on any tractor I have done this to and got more enjoyment in the fact that I took a dead or close to it tractor and bring it back to life, That's the part in enjoy the most. The Oliver pictures are of the day I bought it and yes that's the oil pan laying in the pan on the front and this is ware it had sit for 3 years, And what it looked like the day it left the farm when I sold it.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
