My Grandfathers Tractor

[LA_MERC_YellowDog]

I put this little video together for my Dad for Christmas, and gave it to him on a DVD. Lets just say it hit home with him. My grandfather sent my dad to the John Deere dealer in 1963 to pick out and come home with a tractor. This JD 1010 special is what he came home with, it was the last tractor my grandfather purchased, and the last one my dad work on the farm.

He gave it to me about 8 years ago. I spent the better part of a year rebuilding it. I use it now at my home, and it has been instrumental in making it possible to do what I have done here.

So needles to say, my father is very proud of what I have done with the tractor.

Here's the video I uploaded it to YouTube.

That is killer Yellow. A resto like that beats a car or truck any day. Hope he enjoyed it.

It really did look good. Nice work with the video as well. Talk about money well spent on that tractor. Your grandfather chose well.
