You have a right to be proud! I see she didn't give up 'til she churned up a little dirt.

You should be a proud poppa! I'd say you are doing a bang up job raising your daughter to enjoy so much more than just shopping and the like. I'm an Oliver guy myself but have to admit she makes that Deere look good, and I mean that with all respect to her and you. You said that was her first pull. How did she do, and does she plan to continue doing the tractor pulls?

For fun you should have fixed her ponytail in the third photo to stick straight back.

Fantastic! I can almost hear that old tractor pulling under the load.

Looks like she's mastered the hand clutch and throttle.

Nancy is proud of her and says to tell her she'll love her Model A.

Thanks for sharing your photos with us.

James,
Decided having Molly help me load the A will prolly be a WHOLE lot easier than busting the rims loose.
About a 1/2" clearance on both side of the trailer fenders - BUT most of the dirt goes beyond the pulling sled.

Rich - Vern,

Daughter pulled 225' and the top guns were out at 255'(with a little more than outa the barn)!
Didn't want to do too much for her first pull but talked to a JD guy this afternnon that wants to work on the carburator plus I had too much air in the tires- Live and Learn!

For her first pull, I'd say she did mighty well. I've never tried it but have thought of taking my Oliver to a pull just to see what it would do. I'm sure I'd make a lot of lil mistakes too. It's all in fun though, and you're correct... Live and Learn!
