On Saturday I and my brother made a 450 mile round trip
to central Kansas...On the way out we stopped at North 81
Salvage near Wichita and got a part for my GVI MM..
Our purpose for the trip was to haul home a 1940 UTU
MM..It was a very warm day with the temp being 72...Going
out it was very windy in eastern KS but the wind died down
in central KS...Going home with a load on was actually
easier than going out empty..
I have the remains of a 1939 UTU MM purchased in Kansas
in 1981..Its going to come in handy for a few parts such as
a PTO,belt pulley drive,rear rim,etc.
1-- The UTU just after loading it in Kansas.
2--The UTU safely home in MO..Thats a 36" tire under the
tractor..Theres a pair of nice 12.4x38's on the rear of the
trailer..
3--I bought the tractor with no side shields but was
pleasantly surprised when the owner dug some out..
4--The tractor had been converted to electric start many
years ago..I love the generator tightner..It has later model
manifolds..
5--Old Dauer Brothers sign from Falun,KS..My Dad grew up
on a farm 4 miles SW of Falun..In 1929 Grandpa bought a
new 22-36 McCormick there..Around 1939-40 Dad got a
new M Farmall there...They were a huge dealer that lasted
until the Case-IH merger..
