That's a trick question because most projects run and drive, they just have a lifetime of character. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Talked to the wife and shell be done driving school bus before June 25th and I got 8 days vacation left I'm coming down to p.a. this year. Putting in for the time off this afternoon when I head to work. Still think I'm gonna take a look at this RJ but if it doesn't work out that's 5 more months to save up for sonething at the show maybe. Do a lot of guys bring running and driving horses for sale or are they mostly projects? 2018 was my first big show. Then I had a C-101 worker, a C-101 parts donor and my 502. When I rolled into Chambersburg for the Wednesday night meet up, the paint was still fresh on my 502 restoration. I thought my truck was full with just the 502. I ended up purchasing 3 tractors while I was there and one needed gas, one needed a thorough cleaning and fresh fuel and battery, the other needed a new valve spring and retainer. Quick and easy fixes, none more than $150 I believe. The paint pictures were the Tuesday afternoon before I left Michigan. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ll also add, just a week or two before that show, my wife told me “if you go get a zero turn to mow the lawn (3 acres), you can have as many Wheel Horses as you want!” I took that quite literally and reminded her a few times that she told me I could do that. She now doesn’t remember saying that 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
