pics for Richard L

was the Molson good Richard? I owe you a case. That boat grease your friend had kept the bearing cooler than the other side! Dieseltech did a triple check later that day, it went for another couple thousand miles..but on a rotary 5 miles from my home the pad came off the brake on that wheel- it seized up when backing into my driveway...kinda like the ol horse coming back to die in the barnyard??
All fixed and triple checked again, so I can drive it to your house and you can give me and my plates a ride to the train station... you need this van!!
My place in OK has a house, so I sorta don't need the camper anymore, I need a dually and gooseneck - to take all my fergies there- I can't find a trucker to take a container off the ground here and roll it on the ground there. So I gotta go tag sale-in'... find 25 hours of Hoyt Axton 8 tracks????
Here's a sneak preview of the TEA20... never again...
Yes, that is a super rare TAEIOU 19 and a half fender under the bottle jack. I knew there was a reason to buy those rusty fenders.
Last pic is of Miner's cows. I hate it when they leave the cooler open when getting a beer, and they always drool on the dash and steering wheel when playing driving. He don't teach them good manors...

The silvermist looks good Tony. What are those read wheels off of?

Those rims and centers were the duallies on my MF turf 20, the two good ones are still mowing the lawn, the rubber on 2 was shot, and that winter a JD guy blew a rebuilt engine in his LA, so it got parted out, these 24's were never mounted.
Kinda low to the ground for lots of jobs, but they keep your heels out of the dirt. I think I will play Chinese checkers with some 28" wheels soon, and paint the ones that end up on here silver. Or should I just paint these? Dunno.
The paint does look good in these pics I will admit, better than in person! But I did this from remembering all the silvery looking fergies we couldn't afford when I was a kid! Dealer repaints I suppose, but atleast no one thinks this one is a 9N...

Can't lie Tony you do not owe me a case of Molson. Thank you for the thought. I went and looked at a 57 Gold Belly today in Cleveland so if you want it when you come through on the way to OK stop in and pick it up. The price is more than right if you want a Standard Diesel with a tranny, rear end and hydraulics full of water. The engine oil looked like a diesel, nice and black. He told me it was a 3 cylinder Perkins is the only reason I went that far to look, even though when he sent me the serial and prefix it does show it as a Standard engine and the serial number is correct for a Gold Belly. It is on C List. It is advertised as a TO 35 with Perkins engine. It has red sheet metal. It wouldn't start for me. I didn't want to burn up the starter trying. It does have the nice white muffler sticking up. Remember the Expo is in Baraboo, Wi. next year.

Labor Day, just saw news of tornadoes in Mass. Guessing mother nature is preparing Tooonee for Oklahoma.Better git that fraidycat hole dug. Is that metalic silver, looks good.

Dorothy and Toto have nowhere left to hide.... is nowhere safe??? Worcester had the biggest tornado in history at that time-1950?53? Since then there are more scientific stuff to give the Midwest the title. But it's the trees that cause a lot of the damage. So many trees and tree lovers up here. The tornado in 2011 did worst than tree damage, that blew bricks off the mortar, but the ice storm on Haloween that year took down something like 1,000 miles of light and phone wires. And morons want to plant baby trees where the old one came down.. on a pole. My father's LST beached at Hiroshima 2 weeks after the war ended- the only things standing were phone poles. Seems round stuff don't ever blow over, unless something hits it. Like a tree....@#$%^&.....

No one notices my decals? From the show, Kessle's tent full of cool stuff- like a Massey Harris Ferguson globe? Spiffy little Ferguson system one? The right wing and the HF emblem- which I repaired with model railroad paints.. was from Mr. Kruse last year, if I had a left side headlight wing, I can't find it-- and Sam will have to give me some instruction on his dash light bulb. I can't make sense of the scematics I found. And it's an alternator- my extra gen's are for the other side, so the oil fill hatches would be be drain holes....

Oh, and with a vertical exhaust...it's kinda very loud... ear plugs come in handy.
