Farmall H still at work

(quoted from post at 18:04:53 09/06/14) She looks pretty clean! You're pretty close. Got any more shots of the H?

Yes, I've got quite a few pictures of my H. Here's another view from the front showing most of the McCormack loader that came with the tractor when I bought it many years ago.

Where in So. IN are you located? I'm just east of Bloomington on HWY 46, about a third of the way to Nashville, IN.

What tractors do you house and feed at your place? If you've got some pics, I'd love to see them. I'll post more pics of my tractors if you are interested in seeing them. Better yet, come on by sometime and I'll let you meet and greet them in person, so to speak.
 
I live near the south end of 446. As far as tractors, too many ahaha. All in all we've got an 806G, 706G (seized motor), 560D, 480 case (loader), Farmall B and a COOP E3 both starting slow restorations. All except the 560 have been in the family for a while. The 806 is the "big tractor" but is expensive to run relatively speaking. The 706 overheated and seized several years ago and since we had the 806 I wasn't on the ball and now its going to take more work. While it would be cheaper to just buy another, I spent more time on it as a boy than anything else. The B and E3 also sat far too long outside and now are going to take a lot to put back together, but are tied to my past as well, being the tractors my grandfather had when I was very young. The E3 was the first tractor I ever took a ride on and the B was the first I drove. The 480 was my mothers and is a great, handy tractor to have.

Frankly we have more tractors than what's good for us, but I can't imagine getting rid of any. Plus I've got a couple boys. Maybe as they get older they'll be interested. They love them right now. I will say none of them look as nice as yours!

When I first pulled the B out of the field after it sat for 7 years with one of my sons at the wheel. :)

My Farmall H is the cleanest looking tractor I own. My others are
not so pretty. I've left my Case VAC-14 in work clothes, so she's
pretty rusty and tarnished. So is my Sears Lawn Tractor with a
monster front loader. My real work tractor is a Ford 2000 that was
painted a few years ago but is not parade ready by any stretch of
the imagination. I can post pictures of these beasts if you are
interested. Better yet, the next time you travel up 446 towards
Bloomington or Lake Monroe, come on down HWY 46E about 6
miles beyond 446 and you can take a look at them in person.
