[AJD] too many? what to keep and why?

[John B]

I agree with that plan. My 25 year old son, who helps me with my restorations, won't really admit it, but I can see he is getting more interested in the old Deeres. When I mention maybe selling one or the other, he most always protests. So he and my wife can work it out when I'm gone. I keep telling Matt that in another 25 or 30 years he will be one of the few people still around who will be expert in repairing a two cylinder tractor.
