Fair pics

It's that time of year, the first week of school and the local fair. I wasn't planning to take any Cub's but I was mowing last night and decided the 1211 needed to go to it's first show, there were only two other Cub's, a decent looking 582 and a 1200 that looks pretty original. That's my son David sitting on my 108, he will be 7 next month and just started 1st grade last week. Here's some pics of what's on display.

More pics. There were two JD 214's in the first pic that look pretty nice.

Good looking Cadets! First grade, let the fun begin!
What's the story on the high crop IH tractor? A collector bring it in or is it original to the area? Other than a handful of Super A's and 140's, all the high crops here are "imports".

Not sure, that tractor has been on display the last couple years.

From one of the pictures it looks a tad on the hilly side to actually use something like that. We get a few "orchard" tractors brought in here as well. I'd love to see your shop do an IH O-4--massive amounts of sheet metal on those.
So being a fair do they do any judging of the old iron or is it just display and have fun?

Just display, they also had an antique tractor pull yesterday followed by modified farm tractors. Later in the week will be stock trucks, modified trucks, stock semi, modified semi, tri axle dump, limited pro stock tractors and smoker series tractors. We take are pulling serious around here.

Great pictures Tim. What kind of spreader is that behind your 108? I picked up one of those recently and haven't been able to identify it.

This spreader was craftsman but is now painted and badged IH, Lew has one identical to it that says Jackson I believe.

Hey Wheelie Guru...nice pics. I agree with Zippy1...You should have put "Gramps" 100 on display too!
