Let my Dad use my "new" truck yesterday to go pickup his "new" tractor. I believe it's a '70 3000 gas. Dad bought it from his cousin, whose father bought it new. It's only got 1800 or so hours on a working meter. Its been sitting outdoors for a few years and was left with fuel in it, so it's a gunked up mess right now.
Dad bought a '73 4000 diesel summer before last. He has it torn apart right now, completely rebuilding it front to back top to bottom. Dad and I also have my late grandfathers 640 Ford...but Dad convinced Mom a couple years ago that he needed a bigger tractor, so he bought the diesel. Now he's convinced Mom that he needs another tractor to use while he finishes the 4000, told her that I need to go ahead and restore and show the 640. And of course all these go with the L235 Kubota he got from his brother...and his '63 Caterpillar 933 Traxcavator.
And everybody wonders where I get it????? :lol:
