DougC 2,641 #2 Posted December 4, 2015 That brings back memories. I heated my house with a wood stove for over 30 years. Wood warms you 3 times. Once when you cut it, once when you split it and once when you burn it. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 35,767 #3 Posted December 4, 2015 I heated mine for 40+ years with wood and used oil only for backup while away from home. This fall when I topped of my oil tank and got the bill.....$1.639 / gallon, I decided to save my wood and burn the cheap oil. So far, I'm liking it.....no cutting, no splitting, no stacking, no hauling, no bugs, no ashes, and no chimney cleaning. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 4,876 #12 Posted December 5, 2015 Al very nice shot. The country atmosphere makes the shot. If you painted it well done. looks like it just came off the show room floor. Enjoy the ride. Gary B... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Al C. 1,405 #14 Posted December 6, 2015 Appreciate everyone's comments. The cart in the picture has no brand or manufacture information on it. I know my dad purchased it from our local Wheel Horse dealer back in the late '60's. It's not very large but it's seen a lot of use and gets its work done. It is a handy shape for mixing and transporting cement. With regards to the paint job. I restored the tractor (T1067) last year. Used Rustoleum primer and Sunshine Red top coat with rattle cans. Takes a while to cure, but it is a pretty durable finish when hardened (see pics). Plan to keep the tractor running to pass down to my son - at least another 20 years.
