Sounds great and looks even better! It’s a work of art!
You and your dad should be very proud to show it off!

Thanks guys , when I started it I was talking to a guy that does these all the time . He asked what the budget , I said $3000 . He said you will be at $5000 by the time you are done . Guess who was right .
Oh well it has helped me along and looking forward to showing it with Dad.

Loaded , ready to head down to the Georgian Bay Steam show . I was asked to display it in the Feature building
. So that's where it will be . I will be there on and off all weekend . Hope to see some of you there . It is suppose to be quite the collection of vintage equipment and tractors .

@DavidBarkey If that tractor doesn’t deserve to be a featured piece of equipment, than I don’t know what would! Excellent work, I hope you guys enjoy the show!
