It took me almost half the day to get the tractor going today at -31°C. I had to wait until mid-day when it hit a balmy -18°. Pretty sure the CMPs in my area will be staying indoors for a couple months yet.

Challenge accepted Phil !
On New Year I will drive the 1944 Chevy C-15A and post a picture. We just had 20 cm of snow and 30-40 more are forecast for tuesday. Temperatures will plummet to minus 17 C . but it sleeps indoor so no starting problems. So if the weather clears wednesday/ thursday at might just give me enough time to clear a path. Happy New New Year. Cheers.

Given Recent Weather
Hi All
Given that on Christmas Eve temperature here New Hampshire reached 66F or 19C with no snow yet this year second latest snow in recorded weather history, not sure how ito wI'll wor out. But I've charged all trucks batteries to insure they start. Trying to drive all of them on the first day of the year has a special meaning for me not having been able to real drive them since July, but now following hand surgery beginning of September things are beginning to get back to normal. Looking forward to see how many CMPs we can turn out, don't have a CMP any bit of old iron that is special to you will be quite good, just start the year driving. Cheers Phil

New Year Drive
I'll see if I can fire up the old FGT and at least move it forwards and backwards!

Well someone had to do it...
Don't know whether this is quite a drive but she did move under her own power about a minute into 2016.
