I begged my brother for a chance to run the little ford,,.he gave in to this little 12 yr old kid ,,.. that little ford was tuf to steer , and all that clutching ,,,. good gawd! ,.. after I loaded the spreader, I was glad to give the ford back to my 14 yr old brother ,. and pinch hi t with Dad for the VAC loads ,..funny thing we thought we had it made with that little ford ,,..about that time the 1st yr of 165 masseys came out another neighbor got one with a loader and hydraulic bucket ,,.
