I am gonna owe you guys pictures These types of solutions are often found to be the most intelligent and thought-out and successful. Pictures. You know we want pictures. We all love our pictures. I could be positive and say it's because a picture is worth a thousand words but... Let's just face it. I'm a bit simple-minded and I just really like pictures. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #577 Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) Resurrected a couple horses from their winter hibernation... both popped off with just a turn of the key. Then, did a little mowing with the C-160... and, a little posing with the 1056. Edited May 4, 2018 by AMC RULES 5 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 16,946 #578 Posted May 4, 2018 (edited) Trying to get this tractor done for June and everything is just working against me. Cleaning up the belt tensioner bracketry and got into a fight with the wire wheel on my grinder. Grinder - 1 left leg - 0 Pants didn’t fare to well either. Edited May 5, 2018 by 19richie66 Deleted the picture because some don’t like to see injuries and my legs are scary enough by themselves. Just be safe out there. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aldon 4,826 #579 Posted May 5, 2018 Richie. Blood sacrifice is not a literal requirement for restoration projects. We all imply it but try not to practice it!!! Bandage and scar or are you gonna need stitches? 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dells68 7,494 #582 Posted May 5, 2018 Been there done that! I've got a Pontiac shaped emblem on my right knee from the same thing. Just another battle scar to add to the list. Before long my whole body is going to need a makeover like one of our horses! It's just a little tired, but I've got several miles left under my belt! 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 16,946 #584 Posted May 5, 2018 Well, I have come to the conclusion that I will be going to the the show tractorless unless a miracle happens. Still chipping away at it though. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 16,946 #587 Posted May 5, 2018 (edited) Not giving up Dells, just have to get it to a certain point before things start looking up and I am not there yet. Everything is outside unfortunately and we are getting into the rainy season here. Jeff, Yeah it kinda stuck after someone said something about it looking like a rainbow of colors. Go back and look at it when I first got it. Blue, green, red, gold and some slight hints of purple. Sad sight for sure.

WHX?? 46,808 #590 Posted May 5, 2018 There's a rule in the world of dog shows Ritchie. ...if a dog has a scar it cannot be considered in judging if it's an honorable scar..... just sayin... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it doesn't fix it you can give them back to me at the show. I'd come down but looks like every weekend is pretty much booked up until the show 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
