Good ya got it home. Now whatcha gonna do, restore it? I don't know if I wanna git into the tractor restorin thing or not, cuz I know good'n well we'd get it back home and I'd be the first one to put a scratch on the new paint.



I bet you can clean clocks too hehehe

[HAY MAKER]

Yes I probably will restore it some day,this one runs good and I like to see them workin in their work clothes,pretty good little tractors for rakin hay,but I would sure hate to try and make a living with one...........good luck

We have an old Minniapolis Moline that's a tricycle tractor, I never felt comfortable usin it. I'll stick with the Case or the Ford that we have....They both got all four wheels out where they sposta be LOL

Haymaker, we had a John Deere "B" when I was a kid(didn't everybody?). It's job was pulling two 14ft. JD dump rakes, hooked together. My job was to drive it and pull the trip-rope.
Ah..... the memories.

Good looking "B" Hay Maker! I'll have to go take the 50 out for a drive this afternoon now that I'm thinking Johnny Poppers. Can't wait for hay season so I can spend the day on it.
