Wow Nick , that was a stroll down memory lane for me,  (thank you )the nearest tractor dealer to my grandparents farm was a Case dealer & they had a VAC , D.C. & a SC tractor, the SC was our best tractor & I drove it all the time. 😊

I met my grandpa at the show yesterday and he said the SC is one of the few tractors he regrets letting go and wishes he still had. Every time he sees one he talkes about the "chicken roost" steering. I don't remember him having it but he said he found a picture of him driving my brother and I around on it. I'll have to get a copy from him and post it up.

They were really pushing the raffle tickets on the VAC today as sales were way down from the high heat Friday and stormy Saturday... bad for them, but gives us some better odds if tomorrow is slow...
