After eight months on the sic list. Started out this spring with an empty brake fluid reservoir. It was at the shop a month or so and after it came back it was a few weeks before I wanted to hook onto the trailer. Again no fluid in the reservoir. Back to the shop for another month and when they got to it they found a cracked rear brake cylinder. Drove it to work a few times and the front seemed loose and pulled to the right bad and bounced. Took it to the front end shop where it set for a month or more to get the front end rebuilt and new tires on the front. When they test drove the truck to check their work they blew a rear tire. I told them to put four new tires on the rear which took two more weeks. I picked up old ugly and it drove like a new truck. Loaded 15 bales of hay on it and within a quarter a mile the transmission gave out. It has been at the transmission shop for two months. The had to order a upgrade kit as they could not find a replacement shaft for it the one that broke. The old shaft had a one inch ID bearing and Ford claimed they never use anything like the one in it. It had been rebuilt twice before. 2200 bucks the first time and 1800 bucks the second time. This fellow said it had one less clutch than it should have had so he added one. He said he was more reasonable if he was paid in green bills. 800 bucks this time. I had to advance him 300 bucks three weeks ago. I hooked onto the horse trailer loaded with a bunch of junk and will take it to the factory in the morning. I'll see how the old girl shifts. I hope it is ready to do some trailer truckin now.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
