It’s about time you showed some discipline in the display of your photo-essays. Please include a thumbnail sketch with each photo, unless you don’t have the foggiest notion about the subject – in which case say so, and appeal to the experts among the readership. Also, work out the placement for that text, at the moment it’s hell, west and crooked.
Don’t sweat the small stuff, John-o, sit back and enjoy the pictures.
Johno, kiss off. You want thumb-nail sketch of the pics, start your own bloody blog… I can see it now, Gay Turtle Creek Boys Retreat Blog. You are somewhat right I don’t have a lot of foggiest idea of what I post, I just like the picture, that is why it is included. If you have info, share it, I don’t mind at all, even if it is contrariety to the subject, I am a fair guy with opposing views as long as you are polite about it. The placement of text is a Blogger and a WordPress bug, not our feature…
good on ya.
Jerks gonna jerk, if you let them.
The Model A pulling the plow was interesting!
Enjoyed it as is…..
The red Chevy at the gas pumps labeled -1955 looks like a 51 thru 53 model. The truck in a barn next to the Farmall tractor has the 54 grill. The 54 grill was used for that year and the first few months of 55 only ( AKA 55 early model).
Gregg, I admit I do not research the pictures very far to ascertain the description that come with some of the pictures, if it come with a description at all. I know that if the auto/truck makers back then had extra parts laying about and was close to that year they used them up. I have seen parts from one year on another year and it was factory. The descriptions could be off, this is the internet ya know… is it always truthful and accurate? If you believe that I have some swampland in Arizona I would like to introduce to ya.
I think that design started with the ’49 model year, with refinements along the way, unless I’m missing something subtle that marked the ’51’s and above.
Had a ’47 3100 when I was a kid; I’d love to have it today and start shoving modern parts into it.
I used to have to load those hay trucks. Hay wagons, too. The worst was clover hay. When thrown up to the platform, half of the bale came back to hit you in the face.
I like the first one, but get serious:
For greatest utility going forward, ditch the tow hook-up, and put the gun turret back where it belongs.
Lots of uniqueness today. That Labatts made me laugh. I heard it was slightly better than Schmidt beer. Yes I have had Schmidt while visiting friends in Minnesota.
Labatt’s is my every day beer. I kind of like the fact it is a Pilsner and not an American style lager. Tastier in my opinion. When I was in Fredericksburg, VA , I asked for a Labatt’s and the waitress just stared at me. Seems that you couldn’t get it outside of the Northeast, back then. Had a Fosters instead.

Leigh, it takes all kinds, even Ford lovers, but you’re drinking Foster’s Lager? Where in the US do they find enough camels to drain?
Imported, I guess?????

You are the one that brought up the Turtle Cove gay Disney Resort ya weinie! Death and I always was puzzled you broached that subject to obvious straight rednecks… here ya get your ass handed to you… You are just not worth flying for 12 hours in an aluminum tube to handle.

This is what we use to turn dirt up, around here:

All of the equipment is Green, BTW. Except for what the nephew owns; but he’s the one with the Jag. So there’s no accounting for taste.

BTW – That red and white 67 is a sweet rig.
Very nice.

Exactly. Taken many years ago in Columbia Co. NY. Some of my FILs unstyled 36s. A D and a B if I remember correctly.

That Ford isn’t a ’67. Early ’70s, maybe ’73 to ’76.
Hah! I was in Davis and Thomas last week. Got family up there. A little chunk of Canada in WV.
