This 59′ Ford was built with care.
Mowing and spraying before an orchard will bare.
It’s Christmas Day, almost 60 years later,
We used our Steiner parts to make it even greater.
This restored tractor is ready to mount,
Making time with his grandson Gus count.
A few repairs and a coat of paint,
Learning to drive on an antique shows restraint.
Driving a tractor before a car,
Builds confidence that will take you far.
You may assume a tractor is just a toy,
It’s actually a bridge between man and boy.

My buddy, Mike Atkins bought an old Ford 2N tractor. This inspired me to purchase an old tractor. I got a 1948 Case VAC.
Mike said there isn’t a local tractor club so I nominated him as president of our newly formed antique tractor club.
Today, we both entered the annual Christmas parade. That is Mike’s son, Damien on Mike’s Ford, and me on my Case.
We had a blast!
We are hoping to have more club members by next Christmas!

The 8N is 1947 same year I was born I did a complete out-of-frame overhaul on the engine and was going to paint it the original Ford color.
My wife saw a car that she said that’s my favorite color, Daytona yellow, so I picked up some yellow. I had Massey Ferguson red and gray in the shop, so now I have a Daytona yellow, Massey red, Massey gray 1947 8N Ford.
