Papa Torque

I think you've found the person you're looking for. Friends call me Papa Torque. I was the first to put a truck transmission inside of a tractor transmission inside of a tractor. This was way back on rules were non-existent and if you were willing to risk it, then it was all good. I started out with a 1939 farmall M and put an 855 cummins in it, then I slapped a T5 borg warner in there and pulled 20,000lb farm stock. She ran good and won almost every time. Finally one day she got tired and so did I. I haven't touched pulling since and I'm sure there are still stories about Ol' Papa Torque, but I'll just live as a legend now. Have peace my brother. |
