Kids have made fantastic progress with the Super A.
Said I'd post a picture, so here it is as it stands now.
It's not 100% yet - we've got some touch up work to do - still need to add a few parts, paint the steering wheel center, the generator, get a breather cap, etc.
But we got the carb issues worked out - timing is perfect - engine starts easily, runs perfectly.
So we made the parade deadline we were scrambling for.
A HUGE thanks to everybody here - your help was invaluable.
Unfortunately my son Chris's lung collapsed again earlier today while he was just sitting in class.
So we're back in the hospital now -this time t hey need to do deeper surgery - scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.
He'll be ok, but he's scared. I'm with him as I type, but he's out from all the heavy drugs.
I'm pretty certain this will keep us out of the parade this weekend.
Of course that doesn't really matter to me, but he's pretty bummed out about it. He really wanted to show off all that hard work properly. He really busted his butt on this project.
All the kids put in a good effort, but my son obviously had much more access to the tractor, and really put a LOT of time and effort into it.
But as I said to him, getting recognized for your hard work is great, but the best reward will come when you're older and you look back on it and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing what a good job you did - whether anybody else saw it or not. I think he'll understand that some day.
