The Washington County fair in Kansas just finished up yesterday and these six tractors were entered. These tractors were projects that were done by a single high school in the county of Washington by their students. While most FFA classes put a priority on land, crop or livestock judging, this class puts an emphasis on antique tractor restoration. Tractors included a JD "B", JD "M", Massey 44, International "H", International "M" and a Case VAC. These tractors were done by high school students during the 2012-2013 year. Not too bad for a very small high school where each student can only work on the tractor less than an hour every school day. The instructors will make the kids give the tractor a complete overhaul, if needed. A couple of interesting notes: Six tractors were entered. The grand champion entry was the John Deere M.....a project that was done by a girl. The reserve grand champion entry was the International H....also done by another girl. The four other entries were very well done also. One final note: The International H had an oil dipstick instead of a petcock. I am by no means an "H" expert, but did somebody drop a "300" engine in that tractor? Sorry for the poor photos. I was using my wife's cheapie Kodak camera. (Hopefully the photos will load.....) Edit: I see the "M" got loaded twice. Photo of dipstick was on the "H".
