Default Fellow V6 Nut Signing On...

I figured I'd give a little introduction. I'm just a wrench turner in Montana with a farming habit. I've had a fascination with V6's since I was about 8 when we acquired a Farmhand RanchHand loader with a farm my parents bought. Turns out that the loader was equipped with nothing but a 305 V6. For some reason, it was love at first sight.

Anyhow, here I am a few years later and am still enthralled by V6's. My latest project entails a cheap Farmall F20 and a cheaper 478 V6.



The F20 engine is shot, so why not?

Here is the old RanchHand that started it all.

And this is an old V6 powered buck rake that we use to stack a few little bales ()
