Could anyone give me and idea on how many of these were made? We just bought one and haven't seen many around and was wondering about how many were made.

Thanks!

Ok thanks:) I was kinda thinking that theyare not really rare or anything but my dad wasn't too sure. We got it at a decent price anyway but was just curious.

It belonged to a man who used to work for my dad. They got to be real good friends so it was worth what we paid for sentimental value.

Ted,
Thanks for the compliment! Jeff, I personally know of 5 DC3 LP's w/ adjustable wide front. There are more but most are earlier models that were retrofitted with LP. Factory LP's came out in late 1951, so there were only 2 years of production. They famous FFA DC so equipped is a 1949, so it is not an original. I would guess there are fewer than 200 tractors equipped such as yours and mine.

thanks for the info and reply! I am probably sure we will restore this one as well. It is a factory LPG tractor as we bought it from the original owner. first digits in the serial number are 55 so if I remember right that makes it a 51. Gonna be a year or so before it gets a good going over as there are others in line before it but it will be done :)

Hey Don,
I missed you at the Jacksonville, IL show in Sept. I looked for your DC LP so I could drop by and say hello, but I didn't see a DC LP at the show at all. I spent most of the day there on Saturday and didn't make it back on Sunday. Did you make the trip down that weekend, or did your plans change on you?
-Mark

I can't tell you how much I wanted to go, but the timing just wasn't right. My son made starting varsity football and I don't want to miss seeing him play. Additionally, gas would have cost about 400 bucks and I didn't want to spend that kind of cash to just be there part of Saturday and then leave early on Sunday. Sorry I missed you. Would like to meet all the people on this board sometime. Don
