I want to thank you all for your input on my firetruck post. It just goes to show you that guys that like old tractors are square shooters. We do not believe that this truck has any value as a working firetruck, but we feel that if there is value, it would be on the collectors market. It's pretty cool to see all the original parts stamped IH on them, something that I know is looked for. We may consider throwing this on ebay with a ridiculous high reserve just to see what value it has. At least then, we would know what to budget for. I think I'm going to register at Red Power and throw this up over there too. If we are only going to get a couple of thousand for it, one of our members wants it as a parade truck. We'd keep it ourselves for this, but space is a limiting factor. Our fire hall is the only thing that is still active in this little town. Every day the locals get together there for coffee and cookies. It's a win/win situation. They get a place to go and we have someone checking on our heat. Also the money we make from the coffee gives us a little beer money. This year we actually had enough "slush" money to have a Christmas party for us and our spouses. That's the first time that has happened in the 10 years that this department has re-organized. We have about 15 members with 10 being very active. Most of the work done is by us with pay being a beer. Thanks again for your help. Jay

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
