Podge, that tractor was my fathers that he farmed with much of his life. cub-Bud found out about it and the neglect the then current owner was providing, and along with several members of this forum spent a year restoring it in secret and presented it to me last year at Cubarama. It is going to a Tractor show this weekend, that is part of A Country Days celebration, unfortunately the unloading and show are nearly half a mile apart, so necessity is the mother of invention.

Here are links to some earlier postings about it.

I need to modify it just a little more, but it worked out pretty good. I parked about a half mile form the show, loaded my handicap scooter, canopy, and lawn chair aboard and headed for the show. Unfortunately due to a flat on the trailer I did not get there in time to unload before the parade. When someone would make a comment about my hauling the scooter I would jsut tell them I was following so many JD tractors that I figured one of them would need a ride. :lol:
