My brothers and sister helped me wear it out.



In the winter of 09 (?) I dug it out of the barn and set work on restoring it. New paint, decals, seat, steering wheel, wheels, etc.





I'm proud of the job I did on it and I'm still glad I've got it. I got the parts from C. Burkholder in Onsted MI. (may he and his wife rest in peace.)
Ok that's the coolest gift ever.

P.s why did everybody have the same furniture back then?
