Rick Dale has nothing on me. Around 2 weeks ago when it was cold and rainy, I got bored and stumbled upon my granddad's old garden plow. I decided that I would try to restore my first project. I am going to give it to my uncle, because he was always the one running it when my granddad got in bad health. The plow was built in 1974, and it has been sitting for about 15 years. What it looked like before I started.     I gave it a spin in the garden today, and I must say that I don't remember it being that hard to run when I was a kid. Still felt good either way.

That turned out really great looking. Nice restore on it.

Man, what a great restore. That was a lot of work on your part. Looks like it would be a lot of work to make it operate too. Your uncle is probably thinking,"I guess he thinks I'm gonna'plant food plots this year, That durn nephew of mine. Always had visions of grandeur".
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
