Mike , I am sorry for your loss . Take comfort in knowing your grandma will spend eternity with no more pain or suffering . It's funny that 520 will outlive us all . There not just old tractors , they are so many memories .

@mikep7810 4 жыл бұрын

That is true. I've always said these old tractors have a lot of stories to tell and I'm glad I can keep telling them

Sorry for your loss Mike. Mine died in 1999 of a stroke. I miss that woman every day. I just wish she had met my children and them her.

Thank you. I hear you. My grandma met my children but she never knew who they were. I'm thankful my other grandma met my children before she passed

I have 2 1958 520’s. Both have been on this farm for well over 50 years. Both still earn their keep around here but have a much easier life than they did when we were actively farming and using them every day. They can both be seen still earning their keep on my You Tube channel, “ Tractor Talk With Gary “ Sorry about your grandmother Mike. That’s rough to see someone close go through that.

Thanks Gary. Cool that the 520s are still earning their keep
