In case it ever deluges on you.

 Dang,,,Chask,,,you gettin to be just like ole JC,,,, he can find them pics on the web pretty quick,,,,,!!! I seriously think you could drive thet thing on my yard,,,,,first'ist thing I'd do is jerk  the intake manifold off and put on this tractor then send him on his way,,,,,, And,,,and,,I ain't gots no aluminum cans either,,,,,,,,,,,or,,,or,,,any water to play in!!!

Maybees ye needs one that looks like this?

 Yeah,,I know exactly where thet same manifold is,,,,,but them sons of beaches want real money as in wheel barrows of greenbacks and,,,and,,,,,I'm to chee,,,,errrr,,,,,what was thet other word that ole Shameless likes to call me so much ,,,,chit,,,, they want more for thet manifold than what I paid for the whole tractor,,,,,, chit,,did I let something slip out...??

  By the way,,I received the liners/pistons this morning. Gonna start the re-assembly of the lower end soon a s I get done with the small welding job I gots to do,,,wish me luck,,,,,,

  UMMmmm,,,Many wonderfuls for them suggestions,,JC,,,,

I think that tractor would float with those big tires.  Might need a prop on the PTO to move it around in the water though.

I think the word you are looking for, Joe, is thrifty.  Same as cheap, but sounds better, another one is "tight", as used in "He's so tight he squeaks!"  Of course I'm not saying about you, just people in general.

Good luck on finding a reasonably priced manifold.

,,,,yeah,,,I remember my ex boss used to phart like that Brrrroooop,,,you could almost see the fluid comin out with the phart,,,gawd it was awful soundin,,,,,and he would always say,,,"Tight AH,,boys,,tight AH" UGHhhhhh,,!!and,,,and,,,the smell was horrible,,,!!

 I always had pretty good "control" as I could kinda regulate the pressure down to almost nuttin but a sqeak and a peep,,,course the aroma was spmething else,,,,,,,

   Yeah Thanks John,,,,I'm amazed why them new manifolds are so dang high priced,,,they must be made in ,,china,,,?  Ole Thad has been helpin me to locate a used one but they musta not made very many of those Masseys,,theys so scarce.

   I did locate on in North Caroline but it has a pretty good hole on one of the exhaust runners  according to the seller. I'll prolly have to get that one comin and just gorilla the hole up,,,chit I don't care what it looks like,,long as the tractor will sell,,,,

 Oh,and John,,,the word I', gonna start usin is ,,,,"Canny" ,,yep,,I likes thet one,,,,

Joe you need these fine little fillies to disassemble your TO, then you paint it, then have them reassemble it. Then you get to be the old geezer chewin his hands and inspectin all their, ahem cough cough, skills.

 

Hey, works for me.

Just don't tell MaMa if you ever want to be able to chew your hands again.
