unknown tractors

Austin Speigle · Jun 29, 2013

My grandpa was a tractor collector put when he passed away my grandma auctioned all of his equipment away a long time ago im trying to find them again so i can put them in the family again, in order to do this im going to know what kinds and models of tractors he had. I have pictures posted on here go to help identify or vintage photos and type in unknown tractors there you will see all of the tractors my grandpa had during the auction. I hope i can find them and bring them home again.

Without serial numbers or the names of the buyers, you have your work cut out for you.

I'll take a stab. The crawler is an Oliver,either a late HG or an OC3.

The tractors,Front row:

Farmall F12 or F14

John Deere A

another F12 or 14

the next one looks like it could be a Shepard?

Farmall Regular?

Farmall H

Farmall Cub

Back row:

John Deere unstyled B

Farmall C

Case VAC

Farmall F12 F14 or F20,hard to tell

looks like there could be a Minneapolis Moline on the end,maybe a model R?

Almost an impossible task

Thanks so much for what you thought these tractors are. This will help me a whole lot.

It will be tough but it will be worth it at the end .

It sure seems like it but maybe they will have some kind of sales paper left from the auction somewhere. plus my father knows who the auctioneer Ill have to pay him a visit and see if he has any of the papers of the auction.

O it will be really hard some may be in a junk or salvage yard some may even be crushed i hope not or they could be fine and in some ones barn and or shed, They could also be miles and miles away or they could be abandoned and sitting in a field with weeds growing around it where ever they are i hope i can find them.

Austin, Check with that Auctioneer, he may have a list of buyers... and a sale poster for the auction..

Any family members have a sale poster?

Could also Place an add in some local newspapers..Explain your quest and include details such as Grandpa's name, location, sale date, the equipment, and the auction company..

Wish you luck, but don"t get too bummed out if some of those tractors are not for sale.. Did your Grandpa have a favorite tractor?

RRLund, you have good eyes!
Frome the steering I believe the first Farmall F- in the front row and
the one in the back row are F-14's. Can't really tell on the other two.

I will Defently check with the auctioneer and see if he has a list of buyers or a sales poster from the auction. I not sure if any of my family has a sales poster from the auction i could ask my grandma or uncle if they have one. The add in a newspaper is a really good idea ill have to try that also. Im not sure if my grandpa had a favorite tractor i think the Farmall C or the John Deree B unstyled was his favorite because they seem more taken care of in the photo. Thanks for the help.
