J.M. Bailiff Farm

What is a Century Farm?

The Tennessee Century Farms Program was created in 1975 by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture as part of our nation’s bicentennial celebration. The focus of the program is to recognize and document the families who have owned and farmed the same land for at least 100 years.

Electric starter failed

Something is wrong with the bendix and a transmission inspection

The electric start failed to operate. The bendix would not engage. I removed the bendix cover and found the bolt for the spring closest to the gear laying in the cover. The threads were stripped. I replaced the bolt and reattached the cover. Everything works as it should now. While I had access, I removed the transmission cover for inspection. Everything was good.
