I've had fathers standing with their check book open trying to buy my kid's toy from me and insulted when I said "It's not for sale that's my babysitter" I originally built it when Mike was 5 so he had something to keep from getting bored at the shows because he was too little run the big stuff. He was in a Caterpillar children's video about 10yrs ago running it.

Forget the kids, he's the envy of ME!

My dad had a D2 after he sold his TD-9. I remember starting it with that loud 2 cyl gas donkey then firing up the diesel. We didn't have it too long, as my dad's health was declining. He had a couple of Ford 8-N tractors. Sold one kept the better of the 2. Mom sold it after dad died. Oh, that's the one I hurt about, I wish so bad to have kept it.
