This is a rare picture of Tractor Don in his newly purchased CAT 22. I guess he got tired of inhaling diesel fumes. Does this mean Tractor Don has gone gas?

This picture is of Tractor Don's 22 with Old Magnet and Bystanders. Old Magnet is to the right wearing a baseball cap.

tractor don must have a money tree in his back yard. gas in the great white north is $1.35 a litre on friday, so times by 4 for the usa gallon and take a stiff drink. americans fishing in canada will be over very soon.

Frank, I'm already tired of cranking:D The 22 did get second place in the tractor show you were at on Sunday. You missed the awards ceremony. I'm surprised Old Magnet was even looking at a gas tractor.
King, money tree, where do i get one of those? I had to borrow gas from firecat the other day just to get the gas hog 22 off the trailer:eek:

Boy it,s funny how you picture someone in your mind & then when you see the real thing they don,t look anything like you imagined.He looks like one of us good old Cat lovers, so nice picture there. He must have a library big enough to fill a box car with all the good info. he has.

Hi SJ,
Know what you mean about how your mind can see things. I stumble across this picture every now and then and always think of you as a young buck back in your engine shop days.
KofO....How did you know?????

Yes OM he even resembles me a little back then & I see the same tools we had & used, the cylinder boring tool, the Conn. rod bushing cutter, the arbor press & the ring groove cutter & they all looked about like the ones we had.

Tractor Don---
Don't ruin that "prize winning look" of the little 22 by smearing paint all over it. That's proof that the judges must like that "accumulated look".
Neat little tractor----congratulations.
