| My Great Grandpa bought a 1953 John Deere 50 brand new for 950. After he died my Grandpa bought it and used it on his own farm. My Grandpa moved away and he left it sit in our barn. My dad and neighbor restored it pretty well but they didn't keep up with it and left it sit in the garage for about 5 years. Ever since I was a young boy I have had my eye on it and this last two years I decided to restore it again. It needed a new head so my Grandpa bought it and I put it on. Then I bought some paint and repainted the rims and stuff like that. I had to paint the back tires black because they are still the original ones. I have taken it to several shows. Everyone who has seen it says they like it. Michael Wilson, from Oh, entered 2000-04-16 |
