Sam: Let me assure you, no one enjoyed that visit anymore than I. It's not often we have young folks come looking at old iron with as much enthusiem as yourself. I only wish we could have had more time, there are a lot of antique tractor collectors in this area and some very fine restorations amoung them. We only scratched the surface on Mon. You'll have to come back, preferably in warm weather, when these guys get plowing with their old iron. I noticed Willis was all set to enter you in the IPM.
I was back over to see Willis and Jack yesterday. Yesterday must have been visitors day, there was a crowd on hand. Give you bit of a secret, Willis has the warmest shop in these parts, when it gets too cold in other shops Willis gets the crowd. All Willis and Jack managed to get done yesterday afternoon was put a valve cover and side plate gasket on the Farmall M currently under restoration. After that he decided to give up, join the crowd, of cource they also serve coffee and cookies mid afternoon.
To the many YTers, Sam didn't only look at our tractors, he took my 130 for a drive. Then when we were visiting Willis, I was sure he was going to fire up the 856, and roar out of that drive shed. That's got to be one of the finest 856s left anywhere. We looked at some very fine restorations both at Willis's and at Jack's place.
To all our friends from the British Isles here at YT, I think we have a convert. Here was this young Welshman (Sam) embracing our North American built tractors.

"Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this
