About 45 minutes ENE of Kansas City, MO. Mr. Mercer is mainly a Ford man and says he really doesn't want to do another big tractor, though he is overhauling my old B John Deere.

Dallas took several before pics, but lost them all on his camera or computer or something :-( I neglected to take any. It was faded and rusty, but straight and all there and it did run. He took the engine apart with new bearings. Had the heads redone completely. Didn't need boring of the cylinders, just honed them. New rings, gaskets, kitted the carb, new fuel and hydraulic lines, flushed the radiator, new gauges, recovered the seat, new steering wheel, new wiring, a little body work, paint and decals. (Two years and 4800 dollars.) It was worth the wait and the money!
