Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

Next weekend is the Show. I'll will be there all long weekend. As you can see the ploughing is scheduled for Sat at 9:00am,but we can plough anytime as long as there is field left. I think 9:00am is too early, I usually don't get setup about 11:00am.

If you want to bring a tractor, you must have an insurance bill etc. with company header to show that you have house insurance or content insurance. That's enough to cover personal items you have with you (ie tractor). In fact, they will accept any document that has "Insurance" written on it with insurance company name/logo.

BTW, camping is super cheap, and they have facilities. It's worth it to stay over a night or two!

Dang, missed it again. We will be in Scotland for our 45th wedding anniversary

Friday is mostly set-up time and Monday is break-down time. So, best days are Saturday and Sunday. The itinerary is mostly the same for both days. GT ploughing is scheduled for Saturday, but can be any time really. Some times the field isn't ready by 9:00; the grain hasn't been taken off yet. They stook (how do you spell that?) it, and then take to old fashion thresher machine.

I'll be at the GT tent, which is between the windmill and the main path.

I'm planning to come on Sunday with the whole gang (family). hope to see you guys there!

Gotta love Facebook "Memories" when fun ones pop up...

Seems we were last at the Georgian Bay Steam show 14 years ago ~ Miniature Steam engine - "steamed Corn on the Cob" I think Allis Chalmers was the featured maker that year of course there were lots of steam engines to see as well...

I hope you guys have a great time. I’m looking forward to some pictures from the show!

@Spike188 just wanted to tell you two, happy anniversary!

I agree with JSinMo, we want pic! Harry

More to come tomorrow night .

Thanks for posting David. Some mighty fine looking tractors. Harry

Congratulations to David, you deserve the win. Thanks to everyone who posted the pics. I never saw a purple tractor before. Harry

@DavidBarkey Congratulations! I’m glad your hard work is getting recognized!

Thank you guys for the pictures, I enjoyed see the sights!

A thought occurred to me. There are countless tractor shows, parades, old farm demonstrations all over the US and Canada. Its quite a testament to these old work horses that so many are still operating.

Congratulations Dave. Thanks for the pictures. Looks like a great show. Would like to make it there some day. We don’t get to see the big old iron tractors around here.

Early Colt Tractors are Purple, well maybe Raspberry.

@FUTZ do you know who owns the 10's? I have a 9 and 10 to restore.

Congratulations to Dave for a very well deserved prize. Seeing the tractor in person I can say that. The level of detail is impressive.

Even had seagulls inspecting work.

Jerry, too bad I missed you.
I thought a blue shirt and red hat would be noticeable.
Unless you were running the thrasher:

Deal of the year!
A guy asked if I wanted to buy a Haban sickle mower from a Wheelhorse.
Never been used, kept in barn for 40 years. $100.00, I said yeah!!!
Runs smooth (by hand).

Looks like fun FUTZ. Nice job. Those seagulls are always on the job.

I’ll be plowing in two weeks time.

Thanks FUTZ.

It came off a Wheel Horse D-180, so should fit on my D-200. But kinda thinking of converting to hydraulic and putting on 444. At least I should make lift/lower/angle hydraulic for either tractor.
