  • ‪@MerlinsOldSchoolGarage‬ , ‪@jetskijim007‬, Brad and William are on a mission today to get all the projects done that they have been putting off. Merlin doesn't get the Kenworth rollback truck out often but he puts it to work on three big tow jobs!

    Everyone needs a Merlin in their life.. A mentor to look up to who can teach you anything and has good principles;
    and everyone needs a Jimmy: someone who's never afraid, always down, always ready to go and always has your back.
    You can't buy quality like these two.

    The first truck I drove was a 1975 F250 2wd in midnight blue. It had 8 ply tires on 16.5 split rims. It was my dad's "new" truck for his business.. I was probably 11 the first time I got to move it around the lot (surprising he let me do anything with a 1 year old truck). I ended up owning it when he passed away. Unfortunately, here in the "rust belt" of Illinois, we can't keep the old stuff on the road very easily. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    Great video Merlin. That red Ford pickup reminded me of my new 77 3/4 ton 4x4 highboy that I bought, black, white pinstripes, 12.00x16.5 Jackman wheels, 300 six cylinder, with 4 speed. That was the best pickup that I ever owned, a real pickup. You really brought back some good memories. Thanks.

    If you think you`re tough, then go volunteer at the ranch down there in the summer! I`m sure there is more than enough work fixing fence or rounding up cows thru all the cacti. Easy enough? OK now add 110 degree heat to the mix. Rugged is only the beginning and that was just the scenery. Great story!😲

    Merlin first time that I have seen the more conventional style tractor with tracks. Now a lot of the modern farm equipment are built with tracks but I don't recall older machines with tracks. Mind you my exposure to tractors are from a Mom and pop operation. My grandfather Currin raised tobacco back in the 30s-through the mid 50s. Then my Uncle Ervin took over the operation from mid 1950s until he died in 1973. There operation was in the Sandhills of North Carolina.
