Sonny's last drive!!!

Postby SONNY » Wed Nov 15, 2006 9:18 pm

When we had to rent out the farm, because of my health problems, my wife took these vids. of me when I put the tractors away for the last time! This AC 440 (#1577, #1576 is already in shed) was our main "big" tractor, pulled the 45' field cultivator, 30' disk, and the little 13 shank chisel plow! Hope you enjoy the vid! I just ran past her for a quick pose! thanks; sonny

Great shots! Thanks Sonny. I'm sure that was a bittersweet feeling. :cry:

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

My wife says I don't listen to her. - - - - - - - - Or something like that!
