Rob Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I snapped this from the front porch earlier this morning. New trick for the dog and she really didn't care much for it.Seen this owl in the trees so snapped a photo. I can watch nature for hours without boredom. The nest was just out of the cameras' eye, and I suspect this was a mother.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Rob Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 My redneck partner on the boo-boo truck said that looks fun except the "non-green" tractor ruined the picture !My wife's grandpa bought that tractor new in 1951 and it still runs perfect. It is a great mower. J.I. Case was very popular in mid southern Illinois for a lot of years as were the other brands. There are three VAC series, and one VAI series in the family. I plan to give this one a repaint over the winter for a non secret Christmas gift to my mother in law.I'd just put all four tires/tubes/ and deck belts on it earlier in the day so it is good to go for another few seasons.Lots of green, red, orange, yellow, white, gray, and such been through the shop over the years and some at the same time. All have earned their "keep" so I'm not partial. A good reliable piece of equipment whether worked, or reminisced upon is worth having in my opinion.

Freightrain Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Just picked me up a "new" tractor: 1972 Cub Cadet 149. Sweet! 14hp, hydro, hydraulic lift.............nice! Had a '66 100 years ago, but it's long gone. Wanted another, and found this one last week. Picking up a blade for it at lunch today. Need to get it out in the sun and get a good picture of it.

Greg Rider Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I agree on the equipment that can earn their keep. I have a 1972 Sears 10hp that still mows great but she is semi-retired and is only used with the snowblower that I have for it ! My mower is a little bigger and is a hydro. It mows a lot faster and uses less gas 'cause of the OHV engine. Partner is JD all the way. She has a Deere tatoo on her leg and is planning a JD wedding in August. My wife even talked them into a wet t-shirt contest . It is a hog roast camp-out gatherin' with a hitchin' goin' on but I'm not alowed to bring guns!

John Woge Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 My grandfather bought this one ( 70 ) new in '64. Always had an easy life. My youngest son restored it, for his senior project, a few years ago.

Greg Rider Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 NICE!!!!!!!!! Every year on the 3rd weekend in August there is a tractor show in Dover,Ohio. They have everything from little hit-miss engines to riding mowers to the big steam tractors. We take Faith there and camp/display. It is always a good time with great people.
