Wow Richard you go right at it. The Allis fork lift is perfect for what you do. I like seeing the pictures of the high crops you save.

Chris, they made a lot of interesting stuff. We had a big MM collector here in Newton Ia, sadly he passed away a couple of years ago. He put on an open house every July 4th, his son is still doing this I believe. Last time I was there I counted 94 pieces with an engine. Didn't even try to count pieces without!
I've posted on here before that if you're in the neighborhood on the fourth it's a good show to see and free. Here's a pic of one Dick refered to as a 'Root-Lifter'. Not sure what kind of root crop they were lifting. Seems to be on a high crop.  |

That is a nice UTC. Sunday we got the other motor out and change out the clutch and interlock from the parts tractor to the UTC. Also did some cleaning of the Manifold. Though it was going to be okay till I seen a 2" hole appear. Order a new exhaust manifold.

Work on the UTC last week and over the weekend- Got the motor back in neat to get to drive it around. Still has more work needed. Use the weld trick to get out broken bolt. Also the torch is most needed item when working on these tractors.
