PeacemakerJack 10,738 #51 Posted July 11, 2021 Safe travels back home my friends! It was fun to see a few of you in the couple hours that we were able to make it to the show. It was fun to help Kevin load up some of his new acquisitions from the show. @Coulter Caleb even got to drive Uncle Jim’s new purchase before he did! My cousin Mike brought down his entire collection of “black frame” Case garden tractors and my friend Nate Got to show off his big diesel Cub Cadet that I helped him get last fall. Lots of neat machines at this show as always and the weather was near perfect this year. Wish I had more time to spend hanging out! Thanks Kevin for bringing our “excess” luggage from the other side of the pond! 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We have a new 606 project, a pile of Wheel Horse belts, an aluminum step for the farm truck (not pictured), and some old Ford truck axles. The rear end is a perfect spare if ever we need something for the Senior or Jackie The front wheels are a wide 5 pattern that fit the front axle and he threw in some random brake drums and a hub too. 6 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #55 Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Great show as usual and lots of fun and tractors. Was really nice seeing lots of old friends and meeting some new ones. The layout was a little different due to improvements to the grounds but we adapted. A very nice turnout of horses as the pics will show. My line up Dan's line up .... Kevin's herd.... For those to don't know it we park all of the horses in the barn that is used to house cattle for the fair. Mike's 854 and a Pond b hind he scored for chump change in the flea market.

WHX?? 48,815 #56 Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Plenty of antics for sure... When the day is done we set in the horse barn and mostly talk stupid! Saturday nite @Bear G musta went and robbed a liquor store for what he brought to the party! Dan giving our friend Mara a lift and Mara and I getting a lift! Bloody Mary bar! Dan says you can't drink all day you don't start early! The twilight cruise.... Friday nite we were riding past the barn which had the features in it and we waved the guys to come join. All of a sudden tractors came poring out of the barn like bees from a hive! Bet we had a hundred tractors on that ride. Had a real nice entourage for Friday breakfast at a close by restaurant. Speaking of eats our tradition of Thursday something smoked and Friday nite fish fry. Mrs P made some jello shots that were a huge hit! Very huge to @ronwh for providing the delish smoked pork steaks! Edited July 12, 2021 by WHX24 3 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,878 #58 Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Other than the truck axles, here’s the rest of my haul together. a 606 with a sweet seat, a pile of WH belts of unknown fitment, a seat, mower deck, and pile of WH mower belts from Uncle Jim’s auction tractor, and a Ride Away Senior plow from Lowell.

WHX?? 48,815 #61 Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) Was waiting for some other guys to chime in with some pics but looks like I am the only one. Some honorable mentions.... Lowell's new to him mini dozer.... He also picked up a McClean just before the big show so I guess Dan needs to change his badge to only other McClean club member!

AMC RULES 37,130 #64 Posted July 14, 2021 Did we ever hear the total number of W-H's there and did that number beat the previous turn out record? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #65 Posted July 14, 2021 I counted about 70 horses in the barn but maybe another dozen out in the show grounds. Far from the 200+ when was the feature but still a nice turnout. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
