Just thinking about this post makes my frickin head hurt, I worked for a GM dealer for 40 years, dealership took in anything that would fit in the door and some that wouldn't. Used to like some of it if that was all there was on slow spell in the shop, one I remember was a 1916 or 18 Chey Baby Grand I think it was, wood spokes and all, parts room quit speaking to me. Or overhauling 3 Carter carbs. for a 54 Corvette, can't overnight them parts, books been gone for years, service writer can't come up with flat rate time so just low balls something out of the sky. Ninety percent of that old stuff has been cobbled and butchered a 100 times already, has parts off something else, parts dept. don't want anything to do with it, flat rate book only goes back about 10 years so the mechanic can be assured of a screwing. I'm super glad to be away from that rat race. I like some of the old stuff and like working on it but not when I'm trying to make any money on it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
