I'm going to find the serial numbers. I'm working with my 2 teenage boys on it. 15 &17 years old. They are pretty good welders and already fixed the lift arm assembly that was broken off. And they wire wheeled the thing down and repaired the foot rest that was broken into 3 pieces. It still needs a lot of help, but it's been a nice project.

Well then, You should'a been over there wiring that giveaway tractor at the BS so we could'a avoided the big smoke show I provided. LOL

Special day for @Coulter Caleb last Saturday as he married the love of his life Faith Cowger. We had the privilege of staging a three generations of GTO owners For those of you that don’t know, I brought Caleb home from the hospital in my 1969 Goat following his birth. Grampie bought the 1967 as a project car two weeks after Caleb’s birth and we restored it over the next two years. Finally Caleb bought his 1970 on his 18th birthday and we have worked on it over the years. the groomsmen the lovely couple a fairytale departure from the church! getting the new bride settled in the Goat it was a great wedding day one more pano pic for good measure. GTO’s have been a passion of mine for most of my life and it was neat to have three of them take a small part in the wedding day of my first born.

And then in 1937, The Polaroid Camera came out, giving Kodak a run for their money. The Polaroid SX-70 was the first camera to offer instant developing of the film, I believe. Then, decades later, Digital Cameras became popular as their purchase prices dropped. Now everyone uses the built-in camera on their cell phones.... The more things change, the more things change...

I saw this rig a week ago. Funny running into it, his daughter wrestles like mine.

Great morning on the Chesapeake Bay with the boys. The blue claws were cooperating. VID_20260903_091532229~2.mp4

Finally got a sunny day here today. It rained just under an inch last night though. I managed to get the bottom of the hoods and fenders painted that I had sanded and primed a few days ago. Hopefully I can get the top sides painted on Sunday as it is not supposed to rain that day.

I see you’ve looked at my profile, Ed! Lol

September 4, 1888: Inventor George Eastman gets a patent for the roll-film camera and registers the famous trademark Kodak.

Happy Birthday Denny!

When my wife says, "I'll do it later," I know it means 'after I finish this episode, or season, or series."

I will have to get the B100 in there Eric. It is almost done.

I'm late, But Happy Birthday Denny

NICE!!! Thanks for sharing Ed. You guys look like you're having a good time! There's definitely something special about that Chesapeake Bay sewage which makes those blue claws from down there the best. Man do I love those Baltimore crab cakes. It's been a long while since I've been down there.

I'm with Dan on making a new one. 'Bout the only damn thing I'm good at. Lots of times you can inspect and reuse some of the old one. provided the wires weren't cut too short.

@PeacemakerJack Excellent story! Thanks for sharing, that put a smile on my face! Best wishes to @Coulter Caleb!!

@PeacemakerJack I am so excited for @Coulter Caleb and this next chapter of his life with Faith! I also must say, I sure do miss your story telling!

What do farmers use to make crop circles? A Pro-tractor

The likelihood of finding a new wiring harness for a nearly four decade old Wheel Horse is remote. There could be one out there but do you really need one? We can help you identify any problems and correct them. As far as I know the 414 model was made from 1987 to 1989. The 1987 (model # 31-14K802) wiring is not the same as the 1988 and 1989 (model # 31-14K803 or 31-14K804) because of the charging system being used. Though the wiring diagram may look like a multicolored bowl of spaghettis it can be understood if taken in small bytes (pun intended) and we have that resource available. Let us know the model number and the wiring difficulties you have experienced and we will help you overcome them.

I usually make a new harness, if one is needed.
