Thanks to all of you for all the comments on the overweight trucker. We were eating dinner this noon and he came through the yard, hooked up and left. I figured he would come to the house but didn't. Must have got the needed permits. Well like I said in the other post I sold the 166 Bantam excavator and part of the deal is that I have to deliver it. The guy that bought it lives 30 mi. west down the black top that runs in front of my place. So we loaded it tonight. Things went smooth-it has a Detroit 4-71 in it and needed a shot of either to light it. We got it on the ramp and put a chain around the bucket and I pulled myself on easily. But then to get it on farther I had to turn the cab around back it up - got a little crooked. When you turn the cab around everything on the foot controls is suddenly backwards. I hadn't run this thing for 3 years and steel on steel is like a pig on ice-also 1 of the seals is out on the bucket cylinder and it was like 2 pigs on ice!! We got her though. When you are in the cab it feels like you are 20 ft. in the air!! Thanks---Tee

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
