Very Cool!

 

Other than the front Tach-o-Matic - is it all original?

I have seen this big blue boxy thing in your avatar and I think maybe in another post.I always assumed it was a livestock watering tank.Thanks for telling us what it really was meant for.

Thanks for the pics, Paul. That bottom pic is a candidate for the calendar.

We replaced the original H60 about 1990 with an HH70 to make it easier for my Father to start it..  Father was to frugal to spring for electric start and the H60 predated ACR which the HH70 has.  Put new rings in the  H60 and it is sitting on the shelf as are the front tires.  That size is NLA and i wanted to keep then nice.    I added electric start after I got her.  No charging system just recharge the battery every 2 months and it is great.  She gets frequent use year round as she is my "Chore" tractor.  Lots of stops and starts and getting on and off.  It is so much easier to get on and off her than her larger siblings.

Came across the first picture recently of my first and favorite horse.  Father bought her in May 1967.  That is my nephew in control.  (He retired a few year ago as a CAPT in the Navy)  The other picture was today after she hauled 750 lbs of coal up from the barn.

 

Some irony there, in the background you can see a big blue boxy thing.  That is one of 144 Fracing  tanks (holding about 2.8 million gallons of water) being used to stimulate the 11 gas wells up there, and I am shoveling coal.
