July 11th 2024, Kent brought over the Central Washington Antique Farm Equipment Club Small People Wagon so we can do some maintenance, repair the front axle, and paint the side boards with the club logo and name so it can be seen better in parades. Work will start when it cools down. Let me know if you want to come and help with this club project.
While Kent was here with his trailer, he picked up the two tractor of his that I picked up from the museum.

On Sunday June 9th, 2024, we helped Kent pick up a Massey Harris he bought at the Hidden Treasures Estate Sales. It was stuck in gear, so Bill had to hold the clutch down. The steering was also frozen so we had to use a bar to turn the front wheels as Kent winched the tractor on the trailer.

Around 10 AM on Wednesday May 22nd, 2024, Kent came over and helped Calvin, AKA Odo work on working his Ford 650. Kent got the carburetor working right. They put the dust cover on the distributor we ordered. The hydraulics were not working. Kent bled the system and Odo cleaned the rust off the lift cylinders. The tractor is now working. Odo is now putting the rest of the parts on the tractor. He still needs to fix the rear tires and hopefully he can use the tractor in the Harrah Parade.

Around 10 AM on Wednesday May 8th, 2024 Kent came to Graham Family Farm and helped Calvin, AKA Odo work on starting his Ford 650. A few thing wrong were the valves were to tight, the plugs were bad, the timing was off, and the carburetor wasn’t working right. A dust cover was missing on the distributor too. We ordered it.
Kent took the carburetor home to fix it. He opened the it up and all he seen wrong was the main jet was almost all the way closed. That is probably the problem.
This project will be worked on more on another day.
