Since 1941 there has been at least one AC tractor on this farm and usually two. Dad augmented the team of horses with an AC model B in 1941. A new WD replaced the B and the horses in 1950. A wide front power steering WD-45 was added in the late 50s.
the 45 had weights galore and was the main horse for years. I got D-17s, series I, IV and III, another 45, a 170, a 175 with AC loader (should have kept that one), a 170 with loader. Sold the last AC summer before last thinking I'll find another one. I've been
kind of looking for a good 170 gas or 175 gas for over a year now and am realizing that they are like me getting kinda old. Tough trying to find a real good 42 year old tractor.
