Here is a picture of a tractor owned by Farmamerica www.farmamerica.org. It was originally owned by a doctor from Aberdeen, SD
It has been completely restored.

That sure is one fine looking Twin City tractor Ron! Looks like the tag under the gas tank has number 53 on it making it a very early one too. Thanks for the picture!

You're absolutely right. It's serial number is 250053. I'm curious as to how you can see that from the picture??

I have a copy of the Nebraska Tractor Test Lab report (Test No. 122 for the 27-44) done in May of 1926. The test tractor had serial number 250025 with an engine serial number of 200006. The report also states it is a Model AT.

Nice early 27-44. Certain TC collectors know where most models are. There is a small following of TC. Production numbers low and parts sources are limited.

Hi Ron
I was just having a little fun with you. My eyesight isn't that good. Like Molinegb said a small group of certain TC collectors keep track of whats out there. I had already known about this tractor. The one I have is number 250026 with engine number 200020.

Very Nice...I wish that I had both my 27-44 TC's back..

Please send an email. Be interesting to see yours if you"re not a long ways away.

You probably already know about the one in southern MN (other than this one at Farmamerica), the one in western SD and the one in central IL ??

Hi Ron I sent you an email. In the mean time here is a picture of mine.

Ive never gotten into the Twin City models but they certainly do look neat. Nice picture. I cant imagine what people felt like when the first tractor was delivered to the farm.

Twin City,

Thanks a bunch. Wow, you have the pointed lugs, the extension rims and a canopy. It doesn't get any better. There were thoughts of trying to get a canopy on ours at FA too. Don't know the current status of that.

Is that a 21-32 buddy tractor ?? and it has a canopy too !!

Thanks for the email.

The smaller Twin is a 17-28. They are the same as a 27-44 only half the size.

Anyone looking for the rear rims for this tractor?
