This summer my son and grandson became the fourth and fifth generations of our family to drive the UB which was my Dad's. He bought it when it was just a few years old and it has been in the family ever since. My brother had it for a while and I own it now. It's not "restored" restored but it does what I need it to do. I think I have posted pictures of it on this forum before.
My daughter put together this composite photo showing my Dad, myself, my son and my grandson. I thought it turned out really neat. I know my grandfather also ran the tractor on at least a few occasions, but unfortunately I did not have a photo of him.

(quoted from post at 06:21:31 09/02/19) Great pictures, and really neat idea by your daughter! Nice looking UB also. What year is it?

The serial no. plate is long gone, but we've always been told it is a 1954, and I believe that to be correct.

It was not a good idea for MM to put that plate directly under the battery. Over the years leakage and corrosion took care of the plate. They should have put it in a different location.
 
Nice job putting that together. Also thanks for letting me drive it a few miles earlier this summer. The MM engine sound is "music to my ears". Especially the Us and Zs and their derivatives.
 
(quoted from post at 09:02:42 09/02/19) What is serial # on engine plate by the oil filter?

Good point. I'll have to check that. Is there a listing of those numbers as well?

I've never been overly concerned about it. The important thing to me is the family factor. But I suppose for my own information I should get it nailed down for sure.
