Re: 1949 Ford Tractor
Hello Fetch, 6066ers, and Tractor Aficionados,
Fetch, concerning readers getting a kick out of your FIL's 8N photos, how can anybody not get a kick of a mid-century machine that converts gasoline to fire and hauls stuff? And, it has tires, with the nicest tread I've seen in a long time on a working tractor. And, I don't see any dings in the grill--what happened to trees and fence posts in Kansas? They, and overwhelming snow drifts, have poked at every tractor's snout in Minnesota. Ford's 3-point hitch connects to more implements than I can count, but I've not seen (until your photo) the five-gallon-bucket-transporter attachment. I have to get to more farm auctions to see if I can find one.
Regards and Thanks for making my day,
