    Dad / grandpas tractor

    We still have the WC my Great grandpa used to replace the dead horse in 46 or 47' my Great uncle picked it up from the dealership and took it across the road to have the spokes cut off and rims welded on for rubber. Still have the WD that came new a couple years later. Both were on the same...

    Woods 15' batwing hp

    Woods Batwings seem to be easier to run than most they are lighter weight and must have smaller gear boxes. Dad had 2 315's and ran them on 706's, a gas and a diesel. They mowed everything from sod fields to overgrown stuff as tall as the smokestack and those old 706's ran them fine. The...
