    I quit!

    This has not been a good start to a new year. I refuse to go another year not feeling good about things I once loved. So, old tractors and Chryslers gotta go. Nothing but Model A’s for the remainder of my life. I feel better already.

    Its always good to get your priorities in order. Happy new year and congrats on finding your direction! I know a few local guys that love to work on those old tractors. Occasionally I do a little machine work for them. Model As give you more opportunity for enjoyment. I can't imagine strapping the family to the Massey-Ferguson and heading down to dairy Queen!

      That's what the trailers are for and besides everybody else enjoys a "old" farmer driving to town on a tractor.

    Why not LOL

    I'll take the tractors!

    which Chrysler would you be taking about? Something with the straight 8? something with the fluid coupling?

      Perhaps a good decision from the standpoint of getting some parts for the Chrysler products. Took us 2 years to find a spider gear for a '27 Chry. coupe rear end!

        The nice thing about antique tractors is you don't have the expense of chrome and upholstery. Just be sure to use a rain cap on the exhaust, if you store it outside.

          Yeah, Tom, we used to use an empty old can. If you forgot to take it off the pipe everyone ducked. Oh well that doesn't happen anymore, "oil in plastic bottles" now.

        Spent several yrs working on old tractors, if they could only talk, what a story they would tell.

          Whoa.........back up there Captndan. Instead of selling the Chryslers, take them to the nearest dealer and trade them in on a new Studebaker.

          Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
