Saw this picture today of an old Ford 971 Select O Speed with a full set of cultivators. bet there are not too many of them around fully dressed for row crop work.
brought back memories of me driving hour after hour plowing corn, tobacco with front cultivators.
later we had rear cultivators, but they were never the same.
with a tractor like this, low gear, good set of cultivators, you could almost hoe and hill up tobacco plants.
wish I still had one for my gardens and truck patches.
all I have come up with is this one cultivator with a set of hillers, you can bar out a row or hill it up, but you can not see your work and drive at the same time, just aim the tractor and hope for the best, it does fair work, but not the same by any stretch.
