Tractor
1954 Ford NAA
One year ago I purchased a well used but still good 54 Ford NAA tractor with a industrial front loader. That worked out great this past winter with all the snow we got but then something strange happened. Just as I finished the last bit of plowing, I stopped the tractor to go inside for a break, but when I returned the tractor would not move. The result was a broken left axle. In spring I took it apart and did the repair. All fixed now and I also did some restoring to the neglected tractor. All new gauges and some paint made it look so much better. Never finished all the painting, but did replace the hydraulic hoses for the front loader. I'm learning a lot about owning a tractor and mostly enjoying it. I wish I knew more or had someone that I could talk to and learn from. I think that's where this net will come in and I hope the people here don't mind my questions. Thanks,
John Armando

Welcome to TBN.
Questions? Ask away--that way we all learn something.

BTW: post photos of your tractor. We always like to see what folks are doing to/with their machines.
