Hi! Welcome to my 'Old Stuff' pages. I've always
liked old mechanical stuff, just ask my wife why she doesn't want to take me to Greenfield Village
(I mourn all the old engines and equipment that just NEED ME!). My Dad was a tool and die maker at Oldsmobile
for 32 years (and 8 years at Ford before that) and his ability and love of all things mechanical rubbed off on
me I guess. These pages have some pictures, history and stories of the tractors and stationary engines that I
am fortunate to have. I never mind sharing them with people so I hope you enjoy what's here!
The newest of everything I have is my 1950 Farmall H tractor. I just started to collect engines in 1999 but have admired them since my dad told me about them when I was a kid. I inherited the tractors from Dad after he passed away in 1996. We used them to farm when I was growing up and 2 of the three have been in the family since they were new. Come back once in a while and take a look as I add info and pictures. Feel free to email me with any suggestions or comments, or stories/pictures of your 'old stuff'! Down at the bottom there is some info about our family, our farm and my wife's stained glass endevours. You will also find a link to Kelly's Engine Page! |
