Have any of you seen tractors made by Yoder of New Paris, Indiana? I got this one about 15 years ago at Shipshewana, Ind. I've never seen any others made by them. Checked for a website and didn't see much. I think they did a nice job on this one but I didn't get very good pictures. I found the plow this fall at a toy show for around $50- nice combination.

Yoder made a bunch of different models, He made a couple different Case models, like a 400, 700, 730, 830 in many different color schemes. he made John Deere 630, 730, 720, and 620. He made a few Variations of the IH M including the M, Super M, MTA, and Super MTA. He was well known for making the Lafayette Toy Show tractor for years. I do not believe that yoder is in business anymore, but not sure of the reason. I see Yoder Tractors come up for sale on ebay and public auctions all the time. Normally the John Deere and IH models do not sell as high priced as some of the Case versions, since he made so many John Deere and IH models. Normally the John Deere's peak around 45 to 60 dollars a piece, and sometime more depending on the rarity of the model.
 
I have a MTA made by yoder.

Yes they are out of business and the fellow that was the head of it (Mr Yoder I think) died a few years back, I believe. When he quit or died the company quit production.

But your pictures are better than mine!

Have picked these up mostly on eBay - Bought a couple at toy shows.
FIRST Oliver Super 55, I paid too much for - and then the daughter knocked it off the shelf about 10 years ago. Still have both though!

Neat! Thanks for taking and posting the pictures. It gets tricky getting close up, camera flash tends to "wash 'em out" as I'm sure you know. I wish there were more implements made to put the old tractors "to work".
