1939 John Deere A Winter Drive
Driving around the 1939 John Deere A after doing some work on it throughout the winter. We replaced the radiator core, muffler, and rebuilt carburator. This is the same tractor that I made the time lapse video reassembly of. It’s amazing how much work you end up doing any time you decide to tear down…

Playing on the snowmobiles up Deer Creek
Since we had Monday off for Presidents Day, I took the opportunity to go on a quick ride up Deer Creek. The snow was pretty nice and it is close enough to home that it allowed the dogs to come and have a good time too. The video here shows me on my 2008 800…

The D was the first tractor that John Deere produced under the “John Deere” name (the Waterloo Boy was officially the first, which John Deere purchased to jump start their tractor line). Here is a picture…

Wintertime in Star Valley
Star Valley winters can be tough. Fortunately, we have our nice sleds (snowmobiles) to help us get through them. This is a video I compiled of clips shot up Willow Creek, one of the valley’s many popular canyons. Featuring Eric & Rob Heiner on their Yamaha RX1s.

Model A First Drive
I spent a little more time on the A, and decided to take her for a test drive. She did okay, but still needs some work. I don’t know if it is the timings or carb but the RPMs just wouldn’t go up, making it have no power. Eventually I’ll get there…
