Well I dont post a lot on here but read the forums all the time... Had a 1942 I-9 follow me home today. Bought it from a friend that has had it in his barn for 10-15 years. Dad and i took a ride up to look at it last week, went back up today with my truck and trailer, a battery, spare carb, and some fresh gas. Serial number ends in Y-14 did some research on the web, some suggested US Navy others said it just meant starting and lighting. Any opinions? Lots of yellow paint underneath. This is the fourth 9 series tractor ive dragged home since i was 14, first one that seems to have a good engine so far. no smoke and a rebuild tag from 2/1949 Started out on a search for rear wheels for my W-9 ended with another whole tractor... thought id share a pic.
