You can have pretty bad winter driving conditions in midwestern states too, Illinois & Iowa, Indiana, even Kentucky. The Wife before we were married wanted to go see our high school football team play for the State Championship. My car could nicely seat 4, Me, my girlfriend, her little sister, and cousin. Drove down to Champagne Illinois no problem. Started raining in 2nd quarter, changed to snow in 3rd quarter. Had to be 400-500 cars from our town there. We get out on the Interstate and guess no snowplows on Saturday nights! We CONVOYED single file 180 miles about 40 mph, there was 4-5 inches of sloppy wet slush in the left land, you got out of the wheel tracks at your own peril. We made it no problem. I had accepted 8 hours of overtime at the FARMALL PLANT on Sunday, DOUBLE-TIME. Was not missing that! I go out about 5 AM and my car is an ice cube. It starts but won't move, finally get it to move, make my way back to the Interstate, make it to work just in time to punch onto the time clock. Helped my Brother-in-law shovel a foot of snow off his driveway in St. LOUIS on day. Oh, laid in 4 inches of fresh snow in zero degree temps to adjust the fan belt on a Dodge camper van in North-Western Louisiana one morning. Bad weather and bad road conditions can happen almost anywhere. Had slick snowy roads in Wyoming I think it was at about 10,000 ft elevation in the middle of JUNE.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
