This is what i am working on and it is one thing after another. Just got the block back from machine shop and going back together now. I hope i am on the down hill now cause i am running out of funds, but i think it will be nice. Had to sell an 8N to fund this project. I am going to have so much in it will have to be a keeper. I plan on using it anyway, dont have any room around here for a trailer queen.

It's called the 'mushroom theory'..... it boils down to almost nothing is as easy as it looks to be.

Looks like it may have been originally yeller? At least the fast hitch.

I am making a little head way. Very slow but was wanting to have it ready for the Hog Waller in April but dont know if it will make it. It has been fun and a headache all in one. I had to end up doing some work on the Trans. but i thought it was to best time to do it. Sure hope i am done spending money.
