I got my "new" tractor today. It's a 48 model S, painted an awful yellow color, but it runs real good, and is complete, except the hand crank, which Al promised to find or buy me another one somewhere. This one is just like the one dad drove on our farm as a kid, so he will no doubt get a kick out of seeing it.

I'm working on a name, and posted a pic today in the gallery. My two youngest, daughter Hannah and son Jeff, are eager for things to begin.

I hope to take it apart, clean it up and put it back the way it belongs and know I'll need help from you guys. I did run out and buy a correct exhaust this afternoon. I couldn't get it in the garage with that monster on there!

I named my "S" ESSIE, in memory of my deceased sister. "LA" is Casey, "D" is Deedee, "V" is Victor, "VC" is Baby Case, "VAIW" is Dubya, The "320" dozer is Terry, from Terra-Trac and the "700" diesel is Mean Gene. Still have a "VA", "VAI" and SC with no name... Gene

Mine was SAD CASE but the announcer at the pulls called it rustolium. I even had a lady ask me "Were did you get that from the junk yard?" I almost ask her if that was were her ugly face came from, but I kept my cool. It really made them mad when I beat them with it. Now it's just a few days away from looking like new and I wont have to hear the bad jokes and ruid comments any more.

My VA has a loader on it, so it was sort of named Doug...
Can't wait until tomorrow when a tractor veteran comes by to help me get it running better - barely chugging, near stalling, and every now and then a backfire... Doug can't dig that way!

I considered Abe for my VAC but settled on Babe instead.
