Well, it's official. I just bought a 1951 AC WD from my cousin. Along with it I get the old 1948 WD (along with a plow and a set of two-row cultivators) that my Grandpa/Dad/uncles farmed with from 1951 until the family quite farming sometime in the early 1980's. Grandpa's old tractor is in pieces, but I think I may be able to salvage it. I might wind up with two of 'em that actually run. I feel like a kid at Christmas. Tim

Good job! I just got my Grandps's 1930 10-20 running after being stuck for at least the last 50 years. Nothing like it in the world!

Yep. I can't wait to really get to work on it. I'll probably have to wait until next winter to do most of the work, but having it makes me feel pretty good right now.

That is great you have your Grandpa's old tractor, and you are able to keep it in the family. I still have my Dad's Farmall F 12. This took the place of his horses. My Grandpa only had horses he used for farming Not much left of them now. Stan

The WD I'm getting is the one that replaced my Grandpa's horses for most tasks. He stilled used horses as long as he was able to work. Tim
