4-18-1938 65 Years ago today my L was Born! The build card says it was built, inspected and shipped 65 years ago!

I just got this tractor a few weeks ago. I believe it is mostly original including color and wheels. Has electric start, generator, and lights.

Have not had a chance to even see what it needs to get it running! To many other things going on with business and other tractors.

The fellow I bought it from was really wanting to get rid of it and I had room in my shop and I thought it would look better in my shop rather than outside at his place. May not have time (or $) to start fussing with it for quite awhile!

Hate to break it to you but the color is probably wrong. It should be grey. Many were repainted flambeau red to make them look "more modern". But a great tractor none-the-less. I had one for quite a few years. Painted it red too!

Happy Easter Everyone.

What a great looking tractor! I love the looks of an old original like that. The faded paint and a little oil spot or two makes them look like they paid their dues in the hot sun on a dusty day. Its a badge of honor. Lucky guy!
