This wasn"t a tractor restoration,it was a tuneup for the tractors that came later...but anyhow I was overhauling the old hog block in the 58 chevy, had the grill out and was down in front of engine taking off the water pump when the wrench slipped and I busted a couple of knuckles and pretty good too! I seriously considered quitting for the day...things hadn"t been going too good...and I was considering that the last straw. But, I had to give it one last try.

As I raised up I banged my head on the bracket that goes across the front and holds the radiator in and bit my tongue real bad at the same time. Moral of this story is: never work on anything when you"re hog eyed. Fred OH
