HAHA!.  Yep, I have a friend that has his dad's 55 Studebaker pickup and 
I tell him that all the time.  He has pretty much learned to ignore me. 
  That little Stude has absolutely no power compared to the Ford and 
Chevys, but it IS still going.  My 40 Ford coupe is long gone, but I 
still have a 2 door.  It will throw stones, too.  The big problem on the 
gravel/stone roads is keeping the front...in front. <g>

My wife and I attended a threshing bee last Saturday at Pierce, NE. and 
had an enjoyable time.  There were quite a few tractors there.  They 
were featuring Case and Cockshutt and there were some fine examples.  It 
was the first assembly of tractors I have attended in quite some time 
where there was not one Allis Chalmers B.  I thought those little 
buggers were everywhere.
