THEN	NOW	STORY
	-	Red Rock Sun Dial: Made this little clock to post telling you waiting for updates on tractors MPT found new homes for.
		ONE OF THE FIRST big moves for MPT here to Iowa. Garry was thrilled, so was I!
		Arranged custody transfer of this International 660 diesel between Bruce and Eddie, Eddie hauled her home from Southern Alberta to Tacoma Washington, rebuilt the ceased engine, spruced her up and has been pulling ever since.
		Found this Hart Part Sitting in the weeds with wheels buried in frozen gound, Father-son team came up from Montana and helped free up from where she sat, neighbour came over with backhoe to help lift onto trailer.  Took her down to Montana to use as parts tractor to restore the one they have there from their grandfather, hoping to get one running out of two.
		Eddie, Rob and me got together and loaded this W6 SN3072J (Rob's) and put it on the same trailer as Bruce's 660.  At home in Tachoma Washington, Eddie got her running and does some nice vegetation control around the trees.  Says he will get her ready for show as time allows.
		Patient deal put together between Harvey and Jim regarding two (2) Field Marshalls, November through May following year, all-be-it, tractors now residing in Kansas, better rubber, TLC, hearing some pops and continuing to get them back to their glory… need more shot shells for starting. Have a watch of video under the Drive-In Screen banner on home page.
		Lady Di, winner of MPT Free Tractor Give-A-Way #1, Massey Harris 102-SS SN360915,  MPT Melville Saskatchewan to Kelowna BC, Terry snuck away to pick her up, liked the back country so much ended up being a three day trip to the flatlands, stopped by on way through the Hat for a photo shoot, said something about trading Lady Di a minivan for it, loves Massey’s and the wife… check story below.
		A few days in Back Country Saskatchewan, what can you come across, ask Terry!  Nice find in this Farmall Regular F12, just happened to have some extra room on the trailer for the trip home to Kelowna BC.  I may claim some of the find as MPT made him go to Saskatchewan.
		Adding to Team Red, Terry couldn’t help but bid and win MPT’s Massey Harris 102 SD359587, drove downhill again from Kelowna, had room for an original and complete Massey Harris hay rake, on she went and the pair headed back up hill after having a chat with retired farmer Jim and me.
