My dad went over and visited and old family acquaintance today. The ol boy gave up farming I think 5 or so years ago and has decided to sell his farm equipment and such so it isn't setting around anymore. So, since dad was over there, he was checking out the stuff, and was telling me about the tractor. He said it was a White 2wd 120 or 125, probably a mid 80's tractor. Now, let me tell you that my dad is an Oliver guy, not a White guy. He always said he thought they were good tractors, but dad has always farmed with IH. We have enough big tractors so we don't really need another tractor that size, and neither does he, so he looked it over, but didn't look at the details much. I asked him what kind of engine it had, but he said he didn't look. He said that he was "pretty sure" it was a 125, but not positive. He said it is a REALLY nice tractor with like new or very good 16.9-38 radial tires and duals, has a rack of front weights. Dad said the cab looked real good and the AC worked and all that. But, the best part... is it actually only has 1,200 hours on it. The guy used it to farm 55 acres for a long time, pulling 12-14' equipment. Dad said the the guy wasn't sure what to ask for it, but some other guy was there looking at it, saying he was sure he knew a guy that would $10,000 for it. Dad said the guy sounded like he'd be pretty happy with that, and maybe I'm wrong, but doesn't that sound pretty cheap? With only 1,200 hours, shouldn't that be a $15,000-20,000 tractor?

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
