[AT] Ten Years Ago

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

My 1926 Farmall headed to the local Christmas parade in Dec 1989. Notice the 
very light dusting of snow on the ground. I still have the tractor but wish 
I had the truck. The truck belonged to the IH dealer dad worked for. They 
had just repainted the doors--Removed the big IH logo and replaced it with a 
Cub Cadet---their customer base had certainly changed. The truck was a 16 or 
1700 Loadstar IH, mid 70s model. No winch, instead it had a hydraulic 
cylinder in the body. If you could get the truck to sit still you could drag 
anything to it that it could haul, and then some. If I would have had the 
money, I'd certainly have bought the truck when the dealer sold out at 
auction 2 years later.
