Hi Emily, I'd like to take this moment to thank you and all at Steiners for having a wonderful company that serves our hobby so well. Last year I started to restore our families 1941 John Deere Model B. This was bought new in 1941. One of the pictures I'm attaching is of my dad and his brother and a hired hand on the tractor in the summer of 1941 just after it was delivered. ( He was 17 at the time)
The next picture is what the tractor looked like in 1992. The motor is locked up and the tractor is very rusted. I started to work on it in October of 2008.
Finally after a year and many calls to your phone lines….(special thanks also to JR. His knowledge got me through a couple of tuff ones) Here are some pictures of what it looks like today.
My Dad (he is 85 years old now) got to drive this tractor this August 2, 2009 for the first time in over 30 years.
Thanks to everyone for making that a special day.
Jimmy Johnson
