Iron Memories

Anyone that has restored an antique tractor has an interesting story they can tell. Iron Memories would like to tell your tractors story in our upcoming 2012 Iron Memories book.

Each year antique tractor owners share their stories and pictures with us. These stories include everything from how the tractor was acquired, the emotional involvement, restoration journal, and more. Our readers enjoy reading these stories as much as the owners enjoy telling them.

The 2010 edition of Iron Memories arrived from the printer two short weeks ago. We couldn't help but notice how vivid the colors are this year. From cover to cover this years participants supplied us with some wonderful photos and stories of their tractor. Yesterday I received a call from one participant, who said that when he gave his sister her copy she read the entire publication before putting it down.

Iron Memories and The Hot Line Guides Division would like to thank all of our loyal readers and wish you a safe and happy holiday season. May your crops be bountiful and your home fires warm as 2009 draws to an end and we move into 2010.

When Chris and Debbie Goodell of Bellingham, Washington attended Fan Fest for the Seattle Mariners in January of 2009 Debbie knew exactly what she wanted one of her favorite players to autograph. Chris and Debbie are avid Mariners fans, particularly relief pitcher #48 Roy Corcoran. The couple learned that Roy is a big fan of antique tractors. Surprisingly enough Chris’s mother, Linda Johnson, (also a fan) works on the Iron Memories, a book of antique tractor restoration stories.
