1941 Toro. This is an ex-golf course tractor. The drivetrain is essentially the same as a '41 Ford city delivery truck.

1941 John Deere Model A. We have done virtually nothing with this tractor except look at it, but my folks and I hope to go to some parades and tractor pulls with it in the near future.

1963 Ford 6000 diesel. Another tractor that we haven't done a thing with since we bought it, but it has a definite future in tractor pulls. Anyone who has pics of original or restored 6000s, e-mail me.

1975 Ford 2000. This is an ex-Pennsylvania Air National Guard tractor. Originally it entered service in yellow, but at some point the Pittsburgh ANG painted it OD green. The snowplow is Air Force issue, as it has typical military markings. Again, if anyone has any info on military tractors, e-mail me.

The beginning of a partial restoration. I just wanted to fix some hacked wiring at first, then I figured it'd be easier if I took the hood off. Then I figured as long as I have the hood off, might as well paint it the right color. Then I....well, you get the idea.

1963 Ford 4000 (forgot to mention that in the first caption). Painted from the rear of the tranny forward. It's a rattle-canned, 50-foot paint job, but it's amazing what some fresh paint can do!

Radiator, running boards, and battery box are painted and installed...

Sheetmetal is all painted finally! Starting to look more like a tractor...

...and finally looks something like a tractor again! I really don't have the patience for bodywork, and it shows. Now all I have to do is paint everything behind the rear of the tranny...maybe next year!
