Nice, Rick.
I will lend you my 3500 Ford Industrial tractor for a year too.
It just needs it's fuel line replace,  injector pump rebuilt, 3 sleeves, 3 pistons, some bearings and a few gaskets.
Once you get that all done that nice loader bucket is really handy to have.

I usually try to visit Coolsprings at least for one day each year, but  couldn't make it this year.  The Tod Engine project was given the use of a  20,000 lb. forklift to use for the summer and I've been spending all my time  getting it running. It needed a new carburetor and it took quite a while to  find a plain old single barrel to put on it.  We had to make up an adapter  for it, then had to put a new exhaust on.  I had some 2" sweeping conduit  elbows and pipe fittings and fashioned the exhaust out of that.  It will  take 100 years for that exhaust to rot away!  This forklift has a 20' reach, the highest I've ever seen a forklift go!  Finally did get it running last night, and we just had to drive it around  the block.  It was raining and when that high mast hit some tree branches  all the water came down on our heads. :-)  It will be a great help in erecting our new enginehouse building over the  summer.
