Hello Sir,
I hope I am sending this reply out correctly, I've never used one of these discussion board things, so I'm not at all certain how they work. [If this ends up in the wrong place, I would request any help from anyone as to what I am supposed to do.]
Sir, wow, the replies were very fast and extensive [and some rather entertaining]. As I mentioned in an email -which was returned undeliverable- -now I understand why-.. I was given your name by a gentleman in Panora, IA. I was working on a short film shoot there and we were working on his farm for one location. He had several tractors, one of which was a Farmall H. Hearing my interest, he shared with me some stickers, toys, etc., plus a very nice document which he stated he had received from yourself. In that document form you listed a great deal of information about his specific tractor, [date made, location, etc.]. My father has a Farmall B. I mentioned that I would like to get my father such a document for his birthday this year. He will be 83. He gave me an obviously old email address and told me that I should contact you, that you were very helpful and could likely create the same kind of document for me. He mentioned that I would need a number, [serial? manufacture?] from my Dad's B. I don't even know where to look on Dad's tractor for that number though I used to help work with it and help fix it for years. My life has taken a different course. I would be very, very appreciative if you could help me with this - I want to give my father something I know he'd enjoy, and at 83 it is getting harder and harder to find things the folks want or need.
His birthday is this September 2nd. I hope that gives us some time. I will pay you what I can for your efforts, since it seems that you no longer have the resources available to you that you likely had some years ago. Also, I understand from this 'board' that you authored a book. I think that might be a very cool addition to my gift idea; can you tell me if it is still available?
My Dad always told me that his B was built about 46 or 48? Any help would be so much appreciated. Also, I don't mind using this form, but if it would be better to send some information to an email or ISP/FTP site, please let me know and I will get that information to you.
Again, my many thanks.
Kelly Rooks
