Treasured Past Tractor Documents

After looking on the internet wearing my cell phone battery down to nothing the past couple days researching model numbers, make and part numbers I found out my mom had the all the original books and notes from the Gibson tractor that Dad and Uncle Allen had in the past... I found a local person that I used to work with in the past that knows all about rebuilding a magneto from the past... It is now in his hands and knowledge to help restore this Gibson tractor to it's past glory... Research showed that this tractor was of the Gibson company in Seattle Washington in 1946 where they built rail cars.. They started a new tractor company in Colorado to supply all the property owners with tractors and the implements, plows, disc's and harrows... It was stated that a person could turn up 1 - 2 acres in a 10 hour day with a Gibson tractor.. Things most do not even think about today for survival... Mr Gibson passed away at the age of 44 years old when the tractors stopped being produced... looking forward to reading and setting this surviving Gibson up to run far into the future...
