A few months back I saw an ad in the local paper, someone looking for a farmall super c carb. Well I called the guy and gave him a few numbers of folks I know that may be able to help him. He told me the story of the tractor. it was his father- in -laws ,who about 30 years ago was bush hogging and flipped the tractor . pinned him under it and he got burnt badly. After he got out of hospital he said that tractor could just stay where it was. He passed away 15 years later and this fellow went and got the tractor and fixed it. This spring the fuel line was leaking and somehow he broke the carb. Well I enjoyed talking to him and wished him luck in getting it fixed. Well 3-4 months later the ad was back in the paper so I called him and he was real happy to hear from me. Said he lost the numbers I gave him. His wife got sick and he has been busy running her to Dr appointments and chemo. ( She is doing real good) well I told him we were going to Lawrenceburg TN the next week for a tractor show and I would look for a carb there. Tracy Brown ( YTer) was bringing me some Ford parts so I emailed him and he said he had an old carb he would bring. Well it wasn't pretty ,but for the price I bought it. Had it cleaned and rebuilt. Yesterday we finally got to meet the gentleman with the tractor. We ( my wife) got the carb put on , tractor fired right up and off he went! Smile from ear to ear. Happy to see an old tractor back going. Made new friends too

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
