This makes all 4 models I have of the 40. Never thought I would find the single wheel
since there was only 4 known. This is the 5th now. Tony and myself went near Hobb NM
and buy it.Finally got the new front tire today. All I like is mounting the front
cultivator then it's ready to go to the Fena Show.

This was the most worn out 40 I've built. Someone didn't have a clue how to repair anything. Used sheet metal screws on just about everything.Had starter brush's with sheet metal screws. Had most bolts cross threaded--crankshaft journals turned different sizes, why would they do it-LOL This is just a few things but I'm sure everyone else see these things.Took a little extra time but it's back like it was 60 yrs ago.
 
Nice windmill! Aerometer? Cool. Galvanized still bright huh? How much ya want for the windmill? I hope isn't the kind that squeeks all @#$%^&* night.....
 
Oh, that's a windmill! I thought it was the tallest hood ornament I'd ever seen! :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
You ever go to Carlsbad as long as you were down that direction? I spent a few years in Portlaes. That seems it was a life time ago. Nice looking machine. Now if your group shot included a New Mexico sunset.... And you were to use that windmill in the back ground....
 
There was a sunset.. but you couldn't see it thru the sand storm. I didn't know sand storms got that cold... I didn't know they smelled that bad either... like a musty ol basement...
 
Nice job and nice setting for picture. I like the single fronts I have 2 restored Ferguson 40 single fronts, a M.F.50 high altitude single front restored and am just finishing a M.H. 50 single front and a M.H. 50 tricycle front. I am going to sell M.H. 50 tricycle.
 
I am from Mo and have never been to FENA show. I am hoping to make it to republic but it is about at harvest time for me so it will depend on weather. I did post a picture of my 4 single fronts in tractor photo section on this site.
