Mike, that reminds me of the story of Elwood A. Fenton of Williston ND, who bought a new Plains Master model E tractor on a trip to Canada in the thirties. But since Elwood's main occupation was bootlegging, he hid the tractor behind the false wall in his barn with about two hundred cases of Canada's best whiskey. a few days later Elwood was shot by one of his whiskey buyers for watering the booze. Anyway, the tractor went undiscovered until 1997 when a storm damaged the barn. Last I heard the tractor was on an estate in Bulgaria. BTW, have you checked the tire pressure on your tractors lately?
