Hi Mary Kim,
It's great to hear from you. I, too, think I'll pass on the possum. Here's a couple more shots of that old rusted-out tractor.

Its a tractor :rofl I thought it was, but wasn't sure about it. I was thinking possum most of the time when looking at the photo. Those buggers are so gross...ISH!
Nice...really nice :thumb Someone must still use it maybe....there is a jug of what appears to be oil and I really like the plastic bottle over the throttle .... that is the throttle or shifter isn't it??? I know...I sound like a woman that doesn't know anything about machines :rofl
Noticed the new wires on the second photo of the tractor....that is neat...not rusted yet. There is a logo imprint on the hub over the right wheel in the second photo. Wonder what is says.
Love the rust :thumb :thumb
Drove a tractor like that many moons ago -- it was a blast!

Lovely rust Tom. A far cry from the usual vehicles you grace us with :D I really like the perspective of #3.
As for the Possum... I'm with Mary Kim! :D
Be well

The plastic bottle you are referring to is covering the shifter. There is supposed to be a rubber boot there, to keep moisture from getting into the transmission. The logo on the rear fender is "Ford". I drove many of them as a young ladd as well!
