In fact we welcome anything old, and are excited about having a Stanley Steamer touring car. It is a 1922 model 735b. that translates to a condensing car (has a condenser, looks like a radiator) and is a 7 passenger touring car. Burns Kerosene as the main fuel, and white gas or Coleman fuel in the pilot burner. Steam pressure is 550 psi.
The tractor ride is planned to be even longer and with the lake up you might even get a glimpse of it from the ride.
While you don't need a reservation to attend the pull and show we do ask that those planning to pull or display preregister so that we have a space ready for you.
We will have a buffet on Saturday night, about $17 per person. Tickets required. Reserve your tickets for dinner now. judy-kitson@canyoncountry.net or call 928-645-3962
The tractors and treasures of Gene Tucker and Jim Kitson continue to grow. Yesterday, we drove to Camp Verde to pick up a dozer Gene had purchased.

As you can see it was sitting pretty deep in weeds, etc. It had been used with a saw mill that was in pretty bad shape.
We understand that a lot of it has been stored away and is available to us, with the exception of 2 saw blades that have been sold. Our goal is to retrieve it in October and through the winter work on restoring it so that both it and the dozer can be on display at our tractor pull in 2010. For this year we will only have the dozer. But we were thrilled at the shape it was in, and how easily it started. As you can see Gene learned quickly how to drive it and put it up on the tractor. |
