  1. This whole pipe dream started a couple of years ago when I went to visit my sister a few hours away. I figured while I was there I was obliged by my addiction to surf the local CL for errant horses. I found one real local to her place and went to check it out. It was a real sorry excuse for a tractor. Very mistreated and hobbled by someone and the engine horribly disfigured. At the time I was thinking a cheap parts tractor so for a Grant I rescued it. Now the 1055 is not a tractor we see a lot here. In fact the only other guy I know who has one is Dick Schmidt. Very few pictures in the gallery either. Just don't hear much about a big block in a short frame unless it's a custom. So a few months later in keeping an eye on CL another local 1055 popped up. Now I am not particularly real religious (recovering Catholic). More spiritual these days but I says to myself surely this has to be a sign from God. So I gotta go look.... another sadly mistreated and maimed one. Barely recognizable as a 1055. Apparently some misguided PO must have thought the Ponds were wrong and that later C-series parts should be on a 1055. Good grief. Fortunately the motor was mostly original and I knew right away there was a possibilities of getting one tractor out of two. The seller was convinced that this girl was right up ther with Fort Knox in terms of worth but a reminder that his kids needed shoes and a non running tractor is 100 tops I loaded her up for a Franklin. This winter was her time. Not exactly an original, not a custom but certainly not a franken horse. She's really not quite done yet, mostly just details, getting her dialed in and minor things so forgive the seat till Bob E. takes up recovering this style. Runs like a swiss watch tho & plenty of 241 power so the time in the motor was well worth it.
