HOD,
Your best looks mighty fine to me. There is no greater satisfaction than that gained by restoring one of these old girls and then listening to her talk to you. Lee in NC |

I laughed out loud when you blew the horn in the video....I guess I'm not the only one to do that, eh? I slapped an old horn on my 70D...Yours sounds much better.

Great Job HOD!!!
 Love to see em' back in service and that sound is music to my ears. I finished my Dad's 49 A a couple of years ago. She was our POWER tractor, heck still is. Rav -------------------- Ravgardner
