Hi Jeff,
Thanks for the picture! Do you have any more? Your engine looks good.
How about a bit more information? Where did the plowing happen? What pressure does your engine still have? Are you burning wood or coal? How much acreage did you plow? Was anyone else there, or was it a "private" family affair?

The engine plowing carrys 150 PSI. and we plowed 7 acres that day along with running two threshers and a sawmill.
Here is a couple very nice model engines one is a 1/2 scale 65 case and a 1/2 scale 20 rear mount advance pulling a big transfer sled at Mt Plesant.
