Never mention you’re working on a tractor with a stuck motor on the internet. Always end up with 500 different suggestions of concoctions on how to unstick it. Like I haven’t done it before. Personally I prefer a mixture of holy water, tiger semen, and hytran.
I’d say I’ve got the thumbnail for this weeks YouTube video figured out.

Been a long ass time since I mowed hay for someone for cash. As rough as that 80 was and as many rocks as I hit, God will forgive some sod buster some day for breaking it. I almost need a beer and a chiropractor.
Doubt I do much the rest of the day that’s productive but we are having fun right?

Back to grab the carb for a rebuild and wheels to get some good rubber. Still planning on driving this home from Garden City entirely on dirt roads.

See if I can make any progress on getting the 800 cubic inch LP motor unstuck in the Oliver.


My friend Mike in Garden City has all the fun stuff. Was to busy talking and forgot to get photos of the Oliver 990 he was wrenching on.


Loaded up and headed south to go pulling in Garden City at the Finney Co Fair tomorrow.


Quad track really doesn’t make the cougar look that small.

Fresh carb rebuild and the Power Wagon is running great! Finally confident that I can put some miles on this old war horse.

Yeah, well just imagine how good the test weight is gonna be on that 50% pollinated pioneer.
Bad part about having a field along a main highway is that I feel compelled to mow down my weeds. If your ever on highway 383 east of Long Island, KS and see me wave!


Hell of a lot better looking outside of the falling down shed.
Barn find life. Complete with leaning shed.
One of these drove right on the trailer. The other had a locked up brake, 3 flat tires and a stuck motor. I’ll let you guess which is which.

Looks a little better out of the weeds. Have plans for this one too.
