 Got the IB all ready to go for Antique Acres Parade in Cedar Falls, IA. Got the new tires on her and got the wiring all straightened out. Fixed the oil leaks and got the new springs put on. I was suprised how much difference that surge spring really makes when i run this tractor. My girlfriend took this picture and of course my eyes are closed lol Cant trade her in though shes a keeper. Hopefully by this time next year she will be completely painted up. Thanks for all the advice that was given to me.

Word to the wise.... Painted up girls don't age very well..... ------------- Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment. From listening comes wisdom and from speaking comes repentance. Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise. |

| isn't that why you paint them in the first place? I'm smart enough to stay away from painted ladies. |
