I want to set you straight I charles Sr bought the aultman taylor 30-60 in 1973 for the big price at that time of $2400. To keep it in my family, I gave it to Charles Jr in abought 1975. When Charles 111 was born last October, Charles Jr gave to him when the baby was was minute old.
We pulled it out of the barn were it was drove in about 12 years ago. We want to get it started so it can be drove on a low boy trailer to move to charles Jr new barn. May the legacy continue. Any more question call me 812-963-6108.

WOW! 12 years of quiet storage will surely take some preparation, to make it run again! but, if you ran it hard and put it away wet, you might have a lot of prep work before it runs.
If the engine turns over, by the crank, or starter, then some oil in the cylinders and fresh gas, and it might surprise you.
I hope thats all it takes.
Reason i say that, one time i bought an old 1929 Model A Ford, that had sat in an old barn for 20 some years, after the owner hung himself one morning, before going to work!
His wife went out , wondering why he hadn't left yet, and found him dangling from the barn rafters! So, she reached in, shut the car off, and there it sat for many years. The kids and chickens, and the cats had made their homes in it.
So, i bought it, poured in 2 gallons of gasoline, topped off the radiator, jumped it with a fresh battery, and it started up and ran good! I paid her for it and drove it home. And drove it 40 miles a day for work and play, and sold it to a man who drove it to Louisville, Ky!
And, thats why i say you might get lucky!

You know all I ask was is Charles II rich because the 20 year old picture that he showed us made it look real nice and those things are not worth $2400 now.

Anyway why can't we see a new picture of the tractor are you ashamed of it or has it just gone to hell in your possession years over the last 34. I can't believe that one would just let a tractor like that sit and rust after was restored.

This whole thing just doesn't make sense to me.
The website that your son showed me was nothing but old black an white photo's and two that were taken quite some time ago. The website was 5 years old.
I am not calling you a liar its just seems Funny to me with all this mystery.

Gosh, you got me, thats it. After storing the unrestored tractor in the barn for the past 12 years it has rusted down to nothing. I am so ashamed.
