If everyone wants to list their old tractors, I don't have any. My son, on the other hand, has a few. All AC. An RC, WD 45 diesel, WD 45, half a dozen WD 's, one with a mounted mower, a few B's and C's, one with a mounted mower, a D14, a D17, and he just picked up a D19 diesel. The kid is crazy over AC tractors.

My Brother-In-Laws Dad has my Dads old tractor. It's broke in half in a scrap pile but there are a few pieces here and there I'm going to use.

I’ve got 10 or 12 old antique tractors , mostly restored.
Had to build a barn to keep them out of the weather.
I used to like plow days at a local farm , and just display at fair ..

Massey Ferguson 165. Picked it up in a trade for a bat service. Put a new carburetor on it and cleaned out the fuel line. Fired right up. My son took it for a test run with his brush hog, made it two laps around the field and blew out a rim. Calcium chloride rotted. So, looking for a rim to fit.
My son also has a JD 420, he got that from a lady down the road for two cords of wood.
I have a Ford 1920, but it's not real old, 1994.

There are two solutions to the rusted rim problem. One is to find a donor rim, then cut out the bad section on your rim, replace it with a patch harvested from the donor. Takes a good welder, but can be done.

Second is to buy new rims, which are still made by some aftermarket outfits like Cross Manufacturing in Mindemines, MO. Those are only sold wholesale to dealers, like All States Ag parts, Steiner, etc. Both the rims on the Allis D15 were rusted out, so I bought new rims. Later found out the old rims were highly sought after by the "scroungers" for donor rims.


Easy to vote your way into socialism, but impossible to vote your way out of it.

I like my 51 M diesel dad bought new. Just don't shut it off hot. These diesels were known for cracked heads. Let them cool down before shutting them down. Parts are very hard to find and expensive.

I have a Ford 871 selecto speed tractor, not sure of the year somewhere in the late 1950’s. I fully restored it and converted it to 12 volt electrical system.
Use it every year.
