‘John Henry’ the Ford

I’ve named this tractor “John Henry.” I bought him from an auction in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma about a year and a half ago.
In that time I’ve replaced most of the components (radiator, fan, alternator, distributor cap, rotor, and points, carburetor, starter, wiring, gauges). The hydraulics are still holding but that will probably be the next rebuild. When I have a lot of time I plan on tearing him down, sandblasting and repainting him.
This machine is a vital tool for my ranch in Northeast Texas. Mostly mowing and shredding.
