[Farmall] Difficult F14

[Mike Sloane]

Tucker's Tire is in Dyersburg TN, a town that was hit by a tornado 
recently. The Website is <http://www.tuckertire.com/> and they are great 
folks to do business with.

I had a Farmall H that was in pretty bad shape. Just to get some rubber 
on the ground, I bought some "irrigation" tread tires for it from 
Tucker, and they were not at all expensive. I wouldn't use them for hard 
tractoring, but they were OK for just puttering around. An image of the 
tire can be seen at:

If you call Tucker's, say "Hello" to Ewell Tucker for me. :-)
