Been quite some time since I have posted, but rest assured I am still putting Delilah my 1948 8N trailer Queen and Rustbucket through their paces on 8N Acres. We now have a weekend "Tiny House" and a storm shelter in place and getting ready to retire in less than a year to open up more free time to work on old iron. Finding out front mount distributor points don't much like sitting around without running, and seems every time I get the urge to fire the 8N up and run it around the place I am always having to first pull the distributor and run a dollar bill through the points so it will fire up ;-) Rustbucket now has 14 years of mowing service (time sure fly's by when you are having fun) and I may have to bring the old boy back in for a sleeve job soon. Other than that, he is still working hard as old Henry would have wanted - a testament to Ford's commitment to build things that last, and the forgiving nature for an old city boy to fix it back up for service with very little experience!
Good to see all the old guys still here and catch up with the new ones. Until next time, keep that old iron running!
