How many show their tractors?

Recommended Posts

RandyLittrell

Much curious how many of you show your tractors? And if you do, how about a pic of your setup?

 

I really only showed my tractor once when my Dad was still alive and haven't wanted to till now. 

 

Do you bring your trailer in and unload or unload outside and bring everything in? Just curious. 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Randy

:text-yeahthat:Every show is a little different. Most always you can unload your tractor, canopy, chairs etc. by your display but many times are required to park in a separate area (lack of space). If the show does not allow unloading by the display a tub can be brought along to haul back and forth between display and parking. A tub is always a good idea to have along anyway for tub rides for the kids.

BTW Randy I was going to suggest cruising through the shows threads and get some other ideas.

Just another suggestion you will also find some guys will honor their dad, mom, grampa  etc. if they were connected with the tractor in some way.

I try to change up a little of what i bring so that its not all of the same stuff every time... although some stuff makes it two or three years before i switch it up. Part of what I enjoy about taking stuff to shows is to have some variety. The few shows I hit have some good guys that kind of do the same... so the displays are always a little different.

Nice Jason .....a trip down memory lane! :) Another  thought  Randy it's a good idea to have a tub handy when you run out of gas and a bro has to play filling station! This kinda monkey business is what I like the most about shows! How bout taking a bro to go get his truck!

This only works when:

 

A.     You have a gas can

B.      You have a trailer

C.     You can wrangle someone to haul you

D.     You actually have gas in the can 

 

 

Don't ask! :) :rolleyes: :(

 I just take three of my tractors to shows. '79 C-81 fitted with '62 finger bar. '78 C-121 modified for ploughing and '78 Sears/Roper GT16.

With just those three I still have room on the trailer plough and some other stuff.

Excellent thread Randy!

 

I'm hoping to bring my B80 to my first display this summer.
