Derek, word of advice. I'm 76 and I have been playing with cars for a whole lot of years. I have been married for just over 50 years. My advice would be for you to finish the Jeep before all else. Jamie deserves it, she has made it clear she is looking forward to have some fun driving it. Her request should be stronger than Victors bark. He should understand!

I grew up across the road. The Flyes had a beautiful two story farmhouse near the fenced field where the drive way is. It was sad when the house burned. If you want to speak with the daughter, let me know! We are still in contact. We all spent a lot of days playing and exploring! Very excited to watch you transform the land. Mrs. Ridley

The barn exterior was constructed that way purposely. Air flow. Corn will rot real bad with no air. Plus animals poop. Pew. The white insulators on the horse barn are for fence. Keeps the horse from scratching on the tin roof. The brown insulators are power. They still did that in the 60s for sure. 1800s youd see dowel pin construction. Beams will be flat on ome side, round on the other. Square nails are after the wood dowels. Round nails are newest. Really neat, you guys are dreamers and so am I! ❤

I laughed at your statement of of “not being busy enough.” I’m an airline Captain, and I go from flying planes to hitting the ground running on my off days trying to catch up with the list of things to do. I have 8 project cars, and I don’t get the time to do much with them. I love watching your content as it helps keep my dreams alive of getting to work on my own stuff. You’re a husband and a dad, and I’m just a husband. Kids are on the agenda, but what scares me the most is not getting to finish my projects. Lol. Anyways, I salute you for all you do buddy; cheers!

51-52 8N, just like mine! Side distributor makes life so much easier. Before you go trying to start it, you'll need to prime the oil system by pulling the 15/16" plug out of the front timing cover, then pour a couple cups of oil into it. They have a tendency to lose prime and not build oil pressure if they're stored for a long time. Super fun machines to use and very simple to fix. I'd be happy to help with whatever other info you need. Good luck, guys!

That tractor is an 8N not a 9N, as evidenced by the distributor and 4 speed trans. 9N's had a 3 speed trans and the distributor bolted directly to the timing cover with the coil attached directly to the distributor. Also, most, if not all, Sherman over/under drives were actually three speed units. Find neutral (between under drive and over drive), then wiggle the lever out about a half inch and push or pull into direct drive.

Derek, you should take a small screwdriver and poke around the beams and posts especially by grade. If it's rock solid your early 1900's lumber is like iron compared to today's hybrid pine. I would save the structure in that case. If you can push the screwdriver in and make it stick demolish it. If some is soft, some is hard it's your call. That old nominal lumber is probably oak. Good luck, stay humble. Maybe we'll cross paths one day.

It doesn´t have to be a fancy car rescue and driving X miles for me every week. Some cleanup timelapse of this property or storytime by the cleanup-fire with Derek. All fine with me. Glad to be a part of this journey.
