Update





Today was just another busy day. I did my regular bus run in the morning and then went to Lewistown for parts. Went home for dinner and then had to go do a van run in the afternoon. Back home for supper, and then had to learn another bus route for Friday night. We also went to church tonight.

The above pictures is an update of my 4430, all torn apart and sandblasted. The other one is of the first coat of primer. I got another box in the mail today, it is a John Deere 4440 that I'm going to be restoring.

So much for tonight. HAVE A GREAT DAY, A GREAT DAY INDEED!!

I'm Still Alive



Hey! I'm still alive and doing well. It has been a very busy couple of weeks. We just closed out a good revival at our church with Rev. John White. I've gotten a couple more "toy" picture to show. The nice one is a John Deere 4010 Diesel, it is a real nicely detailed tractor that I got off of Ebay. The old tractor picture is an old one that I got off of Ebay also. I know, it looks really bad, but wait until it is all done. It is a John Deere 4430 from back in the 70's that I got for a really good deal. This tractor is really popular on the antique market. I will try to keep my readers posted with updates.

Way to go PENN STATE




Just in case you haven't heard yet Penn State BEAT Notre Dame 31-10. Hey Aunt Kay you better hope Ohio can handle the White Out, in a couple of weeks.

This is another before and after picture of a John Deere 5020. It belonged to my brother-in-law when he was a boy, and then gave it to his son years ago. I restored it for his birthday. I am building another puller, it is an International 1066 with a custom paint job. I also have a John Deere Compact Utility and a Ford 8N that will be restored soon.
Thanks for looking at my blog and don't be afraid to leave comments.

New One



Here is a before and after picture of a John Deere 2440 that I have customized. This was also a toy that I had when I was a kid. I have added a set of duals to the rear, new paint, and new decals. It is not completed yet but I just wanted to post an update. Hopefully the last coat of paint was put on my next tractor that I'm working on. There will be pictures posted soon.
Things were pretty crazy this week with work. I didn't get home till 11:30 last night because of a sports run to State College. Thanks to my dad for taking me out to HOSS"S.
If you think of it say a prayer for my parents and family there going through a tuff time right now with my Grammy in the hospital, Betty in rehab, Pap not doing well, and another family member and a friend in the hospital. Lord willing everything will work out.
This is all for tonight, also if you know of anyone that has any old tractors they want to get rid of let me know.

Busy Weekend


I have had a very busy, but fun weekend. We left Friday night and went to see my grandparents and then went to my parents place. We had a family reunion on Saturday, went to my parents church on Sunday, and helped my dad work on his rental property on Monday. Last night I went to Halifax with a sports run. Tonight I went to church and tomorrow night I go to State College for another sports run. Hopefully everything goes good. This is a picture of a John Deere forage harvester that I restored. It was one of my toys when I was a kid. It was released somewhere in the early to mid 80's. I have three tractors that are being worked on now, so I'll keep y'all up to date on how things are going. Way to go Penn State Last Weekend good Luck This Weekend!!!!!!!!
