Hey guys, just read an article on mlive from the Flint Journal newspaper on "old tractor rollover accidents" This article basically talks about how evil old tractors kill their innocent drivers by rolling over on them.

I really think this is something every collector in Michigan and the rest of the country should pay close attention too!
