I have a few photos of my dad's tractors over the years including this one from I believe 1950. Almost looks like my dad is rolling one of his W.D. and Ho cigarettes while waiting for the D to warm up. He had a piece of corrugated tin nailed to the ceiling over the exhaust so it would not set the roof on fire. No electricity in those days for block heaters. I don't think he even had anti freeze. He talked of using kerosene or diesel fuel as coolant and one cold day it gelled in the radiator. I believe the D started on gas and then switched to distillate for field work.
