    Caterpillar Paint Color

    So I got a can of the Old Cat yellow from ASAP, and it still seems to be too orange. So I have got four cans of different paint, all not matching. Maybe I am trying to match faded paint too closely. Anyway, I will try one more option: there is a paint for touching up the (in)famous Tonka...

    old tractors need help fixing

    We've got an old-fashioned tractor repair shop in town. The guy that opened it sold out,, but the buyer "ghosted" him, as the saying is these days, and he went back to work. His father used to hang out with him and help. I haven't visited in some time, so I don't know the situation now. But...

    1963 Mercury Monterey

    It was electric. My grandfather's last car. 390. Not sure of the tranny. He put a trailer hitch on it and used it to haul the boat and the wood trailer as well as for long-distance family trips. Ran like a champ for at least 20 years. Dad finally sold it when the floorboard rotted out. I...

    Obliterated serial number on a B.

    I don't know about "wiped out," but I do know that, during some wartime periods, Deere used steel plates, which rusted badly.

    Apparently, I *was* looking in the wrong place! Thank you!

    Caterpillar Paint Color

    Whelp, I looked, and all I could see from them is the new color. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place.

    Caterpillar Paint Color

    That's my impression, too, but getting a firm grip on exactly what shade of yellow--or coming close--is proving difficult.

    Yesterday's Tractors on Facebook?

    Funny how the silliest. trivial things can make folks blow up. Not a criticism--I have lived in that glass house. I have moved out but occasionally expose an overly large window or two. . . .

    Caterpillar Paint Color

    Need a touch-up can of Caterpillar Yellow for old machines. bought a can that advertised it is correct, but the color looks *far* too orange to me. Can anyone direct me to the right match? Google already came up with what I am convinced is the wrong color, so I don't trust it.

    Snakes

    Never seen a rattler locally, but they can be in the area. Have seen many copperheads. Had to remove one once when I had a bunch of cub scouts here camping. Otherwise, have taken a few out unwittingly with the mower. May have seen a cottonmouth near our creek once, but I didn't get a...

    Anyone need a new tailgate for early 70s chev pickup

    Go here: https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/ If it were for a stepside bed, I'd be your huckleberry. There are plenty of guys on that board which will pay well for a tailgate in that condition. Selling there costs a #25 membership, but you will make your money back many times over. Tell...

    How far would you drive a tractor home vs a trailer?

    It was not a long drive, but I drove our '49 JD A home from the used equipment dealer where we bought it in temps hovering near freezing with pelting icy mix coming down. It was Christmas Eve, and the tractor was Mom's present to Dad. Hardly a severe hardship but not a drive I'd care to repeat...
