Went to a Halloween party last night and my friend Dave always has a hayride too. This is his old Farmall. Pics are poor, but it was dark.
65deg.!!! Beautiful night

Looks like a lot of fun, I love the old tractors and I go to tractor and steam shows in this area. Those old Farmalls are really nice, I have a diecast model of a Model M. Thanks for the photos.

I used to have two H's. One ran and the other was a parts donor. I sold them both as a package and bought two german air rifles.

Your friend's H looks well cared for.

I love old farm tractors. Wouldn't mind having one myself.

You should get a couple if you move to Montana. Put in a huge garden.

I was with him when he bought it at an auction in Ashland, Oh for $700,00 about 8-10 yrs ago !!

nice old Farmall - I'm partial to the green ones, myself (got 5 antique John Deeres), but still love the old red ones, too...

Please show us. Dad has three antique JD's. Two B's, one fly wheel start and one electric and a 40. We used them up until he bought three diesel Mahindra's. At least the Mahindra's start. Lol.

Dave - here you go - smartphone pics of some of our Johnny 2 poppers - 1936 "A", 1954 "40", 1957 "520W", and 1957 "720W". They all ran about 5 yrs ago when I parked em in the barn. I've been building a log cabin since then and haven't had much time to tinker with them. Probably about time to get them out and running again...

[daytime dave]

Great looking Deeres. Your 40 has much more paint than dad's. It looks great, they all do as a matter of fact.

Great JD's you have not been on a tractor till you have blisters from that fly wheel, I have had many blister on my Hands not to mention those on my back racking hay all day with no shirt. When you are out all day then come into that cool milk house and suddenly you realize what you have done.

Pleasant memories just came to the surface for me. Thank you.

I like J-Ds also. I like em all really
But it's a good thing my budy Dave w/the farmall didn't see this green highjack here
His wife has a sweatshirt that says "If it ain't RED, leave it in the SHED" !!

[daytime dave]

I have to say I'm not partial, I like them all.

Dad had Farmalls with his father on the farm. He still has a Super A they bought together. He bought his John Deeres since then.

No blisters on the fly wheel so far.

Guess I will have to get a picture of my 550 Oliver.
Maybe tomorrow, plowing snow , from the sounds of the weatherman.
