Have hauled in a couple.......

[whfan74 2,073]

Well since others are showing their first hauls of the year here are a couple of mine.

First my newly acquired 401 which I am really enjoying already...........

Next is my new 500 Special. Now that I have two of them the goal is to restore both of them at the same time this summer.

Dad picked this up for our collection and had a very, very good friend help us with getting it home.

Been busy at the barn.........moved some, acquired some............and tried to help some out along the way.

Thanks guys for all of the nice compliments!

The 401 was restored very well and now is going to be enjoyed for a long, long time. The motor on this machine runs so smooth and has fantastic compression. She idles so nice!

The 500 is going to need some work to get her right. It will be nice to have two of them that Dad and I can enjoy together. Hopefully we can restore both of them at the same time this summer........here's hoping anyways!

The microfiches are going to come in handy and definitely something that we wanted to have as part of our collection. They don't come up for sale in this nice of condition very often.

The barn......oh the barn......it is getting there. Still a mess but progress is being made. I wish I could spend more time over there with dad and help him get things plugged away but this thing called work that they tell me I have to go to really interferes with those plans! Things are getting thinned out and shelves, tool boxes, and cabinets are starting to fill up. It is tough when you have to move in the winter time and everything get's pushed in out of the winter without having the time to put it away right off the trucks and trailers on how you would like it. We are still planning on having a get together.........but we have some serious work to get done before that happens.

That is one nice looking 1045! A lot of pride has gone in to that tractor.

They have a new toy that they added to their collection! I am sure you will be seeing it in some shows this summer! Bring a napkin so you don't drool all over it!
