My Dad was very tiny at birth and didn't grow fast. Living in a small burg he spent a lot of time around the stores where old men would gather. With Dad having a small head his mother fixed a larger ball cap to fit his head which made the bill way oversized. The old men nicked named him Bill. He played baseball with the small town team and he was known as Bill. When he played semi pro baseball they announced him as Bill Lemmon. His name was Richard Weir and went by Weir mostly. I fellow told me a few years back he had a picture of my uncle that I could have if I wanted it. When he gave it to me I said that is not an uncle that is my Dad. He said, it says Bill Lemmon. Actually the picture was taken in the same store when he would have been in his 20's where the old men gave him the nickname. The picture was of him waiting for a check for eggs he had brought in.

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.
