Racoon hunting across the back of a neighbors 40. The neighbor was a bit "lubricated". He decided (though he knew that we were not on his property, and that we even had his permission to hunt on his land) to assess the situation in his 1959 Ford Fairlane 500 sedan. (the full size version) he was approaching 40 miles an hour in his own field, when he hit his own IH 8 foot IH Tandum disk buried to the hubs broad side. It didn't move. The car puckered up and bent in the center of the frame like a partially closed pocket knife. He was in intimate contact with the steering wheel and under dash elements of Henry Ford metal. Knocked out and bleeding about the head and chest. I was elected to run to (his) house and call an ambulance. The hunting party of 4 others had him laid out on the ground when they arrived. He had a minor concussion, 4 broken ribs, and assorted contusions. The car didn't survive. The disk was sold about a month later with no visible damage. The moral (if there is one) is do not forget where you left your disk for 2 years (in the north end of a 40), and modify your curiosity while under the influence. Jim

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
