| Richard, how do you go about advertising your forum to get more members ?? I would love to see this become a grand success if for no other reason than for the sake of saving old iron no matter what it is from the salvage yard. For example, in the early 50's on my old home place my Dad hauled tons of then useless pieces of equipment and machinery not necessarily even broken, to the local salvage yard. A 15 hp Fairbanks Morse stationary engine for one item. Just busted off the huge flywheels for wheel weights for our Massey Harris 44's and hauled the rest off. A working engine nonetheless !!! We scrapped a 51 Massey Harris model 26 Clipper self-propelled combine and gave away a 36 Ford sedan before I was old enough to know any better !!! The more people that get involved in these forums, the more interest will be generated in the saving of this part of our American Farm Heritage. | |

| So far I have sent my site link and description to several popular search engines, like Google, yahoo and others, takes three or four days to get a response from them. I’m hoping by the end of the week to start contacting tractor forum site owners to see if I can add my link to their site. | |
