Great Grandpa's 1931 John Deere D Startup and drive

This tractor was my great grandfathers tractor on the Spoelman side of my family. It is one of quite a few of the great grandparents tractors from both the Spoelman and Fischer families that we still own. This was the tractor that did the local threshing ring. It would go around town pulling a threshing machine from farm to farm and the farmer would pay them to thresh their wheat. After our family was done using it on the farm, it was sold out of the family, in which time it fell into disrepair. Years later, we were able to purchase it back and it received a restoration about 10 years ago. Today I take it for a drive down the road then through a part of our 80 acre property. It just rained yesterday, so it got a bit dirty, so she got a nice bath before going back to bed.
