"The Noisy Lady" with Glen Porter bending the throttle took two firsts at the Auburn Tractor Pull three
weeks ago. The same weekend she took two firsts at a pull in New York State. The Lucknow Tractor

The Noisy Lady.....
CONTINUER FROM P. 1
Helm and Glen ..Porte? own "The Noisy Lady" built from a
570 Cockshutt chassis, with a 454 cubic inch off highway
engine which was rebuilt to a 482 cubic inch engine. •
The tractor has Air research twin turbo chargers and a dual
fuel injection system running on alcohol. The rings and
pistons were specially made in California and the gears on the
transmission were specially built.
The Lady's paint job pictures the old lady from a Playboy
cartoon painted by George MacDonald, R. 3 Lucknow, who

some' sports. He and Porter have invested about $15,000 in
the building of "The Noisy Lady" and he points out that "you
wouldn't have any trouble tying up that kind of money in a
boat". Since the original cost of building The Lady, she pays
her way for entry fees, alcohol and minor repairs with wins at
the pulls.
Rarely beaten in pulls in Western Ontario, The Noisy Lady
will be entered in the 7,000 and 9,000 modified classes in the
Lucknow pull this weekend along with tractors from Quebec,
Michigan, the Ottawa Valley and throughout Ontario.
