Tuesday is my court date to protest a citation i got for parking my Farmall Super-A in my driveway. Talk about oppressive city ordinances!! I got a notice when i had it parked in the grass in my front yard. I thought about calling the city goof-balls and telling them there aint much you can do with a tractor unless it's either in the dirt or on the grass. So i moved it into the garage, (which is where i keep it 99% of the time anyway. Cant let rain get on a classic!) Well, i had new garage doors installed so i moved it out so the guy can do his job. The very same day, the tractor cop came by and stuck me with a ticket! ( I think i have a cranky neighbor) It's a $30 ticket but i protested and said i want a trial by judge. They said i could request a trial by jury. I should have taken that option just to make a point. Anyway, i think its just plan cold-blooded. This would be like getting a ticket for stopping on the freeway because they're doing construction ahead. Funny thing about all this is that it's in FARMERS BRANCH ,TX!!! You'd think they give a little slack to a little classic tractor! Anyway, I'll let you guys know if they let me off the hook or throw the book at me when its all over.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
