Picture Perfect Cockshutts

I took these picture’s early one morning last November. I woke to an unexpected snow fall and thought it would make a nice picture for a Christmas card. I built this shed last summer, so it was the first opportunity with the shed and tractor’s. I had quite a time to get the tractors out of the barn and in front of the shed without disturbing the snow! The Cockshutt 30 on the left was my Father’s tractor. It was the first restoration of a tractor I had done. I started in 2001 and finished it in 2002. Although the tractor was in excellent shape, it still needed several items to get it back in working condition. Steiner was a great help providing electrical parts , gaskets and a carb kit. The Cockshutt 20 on the right was owned by a friend of my family. It too was in great shape but again needed several items. Steiner, through Allan Haugh, Canada’s first Steiner dealer, provided many parts. Lights, seals, carb kit and key switch were needed. Both tractor’s run nice and are used frequently around our farm.
