Tractor thread?
Anyone have tractors? Big or small. Let’s see some tractors and tractor related projects.

Re: Tractor thread?
My dad's 60s John Deere 400 Industrial tractor. He bought it in the early 2000s to use on our family property in Toccoa, GA. Unfortunately, other things in life happened and we didn't do much up at that property for several years. Both the engine and clutch are stuck at the moment. Big sad.
It was originally yellow but has had a couple repaints since then. I'm hoping that we will be able to get the engine unstuck and put the old tractor back to use. I'll try to get some better pictures next time we're up there.

Re: Tractor thread?
Thanks. My three kids and their spouses along with my seven grandkids in the picture. My four grandsons were giving a pedal tractor when they turned a year old and the granddaughters get a Radio Flyer wagon (wagons didn’t get in this picture). The 520 JD on the far left I inherited from my Dad. The rest are owned by my son and I.

Re: Tractor thread?
I have a 1952 8n that I have had for almost 30 years.
I also have a 1954 Jubilee (NAA). And a 1941 9N, is a recent addition to the collection, I am working on it now.

Re: Tractor thread?
Those Farmall tractors are cool
Daddy bought a Little side Cub. The one that the frame cracked under the radiator. It was a fun tractor to work on. The Clutch disk was as big as a tea cup

Re: Tractor thread?
I guess mine counts as a 1/16 scale model. It pulls the occasional broken truck to the shop or a 4x8 trailer to haul stuff around the property. Wouldn't mind having a big one, just don't need it where I am at.

Re: Tractor thread?
Or how about some pulling tractors?
These were both built in the ag engineering dept where I got my bachelors. Mustang Fever was already built when I got there. V12 feom a P-51 mustang. White Lightning was built in the school shop by a classmate. Pretty sure it was a helicopter jet engine (C-46??).

Here is a Tractor related story of a young girl that restored one.
You can even vote if you choose too. I saw this on a FB group. Link: https://chevrontrcvoting.com/Voting/Details?entryId=25

Re: Tractor thread?
This is my 64 John deere 110 that kept me pretty busy last winter. I tore it down to every nut bolt and spring and sandblasted everything myself in a hf cabinet and only had to have the frame, rims and rear fenders professionally done because of the size. Transmission case had a portion of the mating flange cracked off the cad to be brazed back together. New tires and belts and a decal kit finished it nicely. I thought about selling it but I kinda like it but with the new truck space is an issue. I have a wheel horse b100 and c100 as well that I do heavy mowing with one and winter plowing with the other

Re: Tractor thread?
howdy y'all! been a while but this thread caught my interest
at first I saw tractor tread and was all like heck yah, just put two sets of Firestone Radial All Traction 23° R-1 tires (made in Iowa ) on the back of the 706 and 886 this summer LoL 886 RR went flat on me but both IH tractors been needing tires for a while.. extremely old, weathered and dry rotted, surprised the made it this long.. even bought three new wheels to replace the rusted out wheels from calcium chloride fluid.. ironically the one rear that went flat had a replacement wheel from a few years ago but I was able to find three of the same down in Clinton.. the valve stem just fell out of one of the old ones
