Yep, remember those 60's cars, my first 2 vehicles where Pontiacs, 63 Tempest and 63 Lemans, slant 4's, they got lows 20's at thier best. And I do believe that most of the so called economy cars of the time would be hard pressed to get more than mid 20's when driven the way and speeds that todays vehicles are driven. Not many carburated vehicle did more then 100,000 miles without major work and a lot of tune ups to get it, and none of them would start as good when it gets really cold as these new fuel injected cars and trucks do. While in a great many ways I would like a simpler vehicle then I have now: I do like my power windows, AC, power mirrors, sliding rear window, flip a switch 4 wheel drive on the go; 2002 Dodge Dakota quad cab with 152,000 miles, on its 3rd set of upper ball joints, second battery, second gas cap, second set of spark plugs, a few head lamp bulbs (a real pain to change), a couple of brake and tail lights, numerous oil changes, all work has been done by myself at my place. None of my previous vehicles have done better when I really look at them closely, however I don't really like it. But I can't complain about it either. Over 20 vehiles since the mid 60's. Lou

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.
