April 2002 - December 2002

6-7-02:  Heading down to Waterloo, Illinois with the tractor for the Gateway Two Cylinder Club show.  I will meet up with a couple of fellows that have emailed me over the years, including Brian Hassel, who has an album in our gallery of friends.

6-11-02:  We had a great trip, and will post the pictures soon.

6-15-02:  We loaded our model B and Pat Noonan's Farmall M for the North Eastern Illinois Two Cylinder Club Picnic ate Blackberry Farm. We displayed about a dozen tractors and had a great time with the family.

7-13-02:  I moved the camping trailer to the Will County show grounds and started moving equipment for the show.  We will display the Model B with the model 52 plow and our Oliver OC-3.

7-201-02: Brought everything back home safe and sound.

10-18-02:  I loaded the Model B and plow up and we went to the Newark "Big Toys for Big Boys" plow day.  It was not easy starting the tractor for this trip and the engine had just enough power to load onto the trailer. I had to tow the model B a couple of times to start it. The engine has started running rough and misfired quite a bit.  I loaded up early and came home.

11-11-02:  I bought a new model "C" magneto and exchanged the DLTX-10 carburetor for a DLTX-34 which are what should be on this tractor.  I will install them in the spring.
