Now here is a short story about a little Case tractor. Yes, it has a happy ending. We need that in this
day and age where unhappy endings are so often the ‘case’. (Play on words).
Not long ago this tractor was a wreck..reached the end of its useful days. Too small, way too small for
farming. Could barely pull a set of spring tooth harrows. Set aside in a field or old drive shed. Then
along came a mechanic. Do not know who. But he restored the Case perfectly…even new tires
… and a perfect paint job with decals applied as a finishing touch. For some strange
reason the little Case was put up for auction and i was able to buy it…then Son Andrew paid for it.
The story does not end there.
A movie art producer needed the little Case and sent “Al” from Transport to pick up the little Case and haul it to the city
for a star role. Big time production…perhaps award winning production.
“Andrew, can you come up to the farm and load her.” (“Her?”)
“Sure, “
And that is the happy ending. I can’t say the name of the movie or much about the plot. That is all secret
stuff until the production is finished and on the screen. At that time, you will be informed.
