Nancy, there's never been a drunk woman playing a 12-string on a moving tractor in the calendar before. (I honestly can't decide if that's a hint or not.)
I was actually trying to figure out exactly how you could do that, until I realized it was with a Tractor LoF was talking about, and not a dog that he was tying to a pole!!! Patch, I can honestly say, that that is one 'First Time a woman did that' thing that I would NOT be willing to shoot for! LOL!!!!! (I don't like bourbon... ) Edited by Nancy 2016-09-02 10:03 AM | ||

Joined: December 2014 Posts: 1713 Location: Frozen Tundra of Minnesota | You crack me up so much!!!! LOL!!!!! He is mine, I bought him 2 years ago when my Family put the kabash on my getting a 4 wheeler. (Shorty after my first skydiving) I saw the picture, fell in Love, and my 11 year old nephew wrote up 2 pages of questions for me to ask the Seller, and then approved all the answers. I asked the Seller if he could deliver it (he was about 2 hours away), and when he brought Travis down the ramps from the trailer, he taught me how to drive it. I had never driven a Tractor, my Dad wouldn't let me drive his because the one time I tried, I popped the clutch, and up in the air it went... So in 10 minutes I was driving pretty good, and I never told my Family about him. Travis is in my barn with my neighbor's pulling Tractors, so they assume it is his! LOL!!! I have found the way to live my own life is not to tell anyone what I am doing. That's why you all are so important to me, I can tell you, and you are happy with me!

Never saw a Ford of this time period in Germany. What kind of engine ist build in? If you can find one, they are almost the blue Ford 3000. It is a 2.2L 4 speed, 4 Cylinder Gas Engine that puts out about 30 horsepower. http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/2/3/233-ford-640.html (The tractor under the Pictures Tab is Travis) I just thought he was Cute! Ford did start going with the Blue & Grey, then all Blue as they went. I believe the first Blue ones were Diesel, and the Grey & Red were Gas, but then they switched over to all Blue. I still like the Grey and Red the Best (Big Surprise! LOL!!) They are very similar to the Jubilee and 2/8/9N's, but I liked this one better! Small design differences, but important to me. The man I bought him from had found it in an elderly neighbor's barn, all rusted and not working, and he and his Son worked on restoring it together as a Father/Son Project. Once I bought Travis, they were looking at an old, beat up Golden Jubilee to work on together! They were going to use Travis in a Parade, hence the Flags, and he was going to take them off before delivering him, but I Love them, and asked him to leave them on! I would LOVE to see a picture of yours Bernie!! Edited by Nancy 2016-09-03 4:55 PM | ||

Runs like brand new, and I can totally take care of Travis by myself now!! The guy who rebuilt it used parts made for other models and jerry-rigged them, I decided to put the actual 640 parts back in, and it is firing on all 4 now, and humming right along! Also took off the blade on the back, I had left it on as a Wheelie Bar, just in case, but I think I am good enough now, not to need it! Now all I need is a wildly flowered straw hat to go with my overalls, and white tennis shoes, and I will completely be the Crazy Old Lady at the End of the Road! LOL!!! | ||
