When I was a kid we had a JD 60 that we used for light duty chores such as harrowing, baling, hauling manure with the spreader etc.

My dad probably sold the tractor about 20 years ago...

I still live in the province and now that I have my own acreage, with my first tractor (a 2N ford), I've been thinking about that old 60 (It was the first tractor I ever drove).

I was confused though cause I distinctly remembered the low seating position almost behind the rear wheels, and then saw pictures of much taller tractors here on the photos..

Our tractor definately had a factory paint job which was green on the hood with yellow side panels near the front that had the black 60 logo on it.

What years was the 60 low seat std made with the yellow and green paint scheme? how rare is the tractor ?
What should I expect to pay if I actually can find her?

Should I try to track the old girl down?

I will let someone else give you the production numbers for the low 60, but can tell you that there wern't a whole lot made (a collectable tractor). The Yellow paint scheme was started with the 20 series ie. 620 720ect. I think you should try to find it. If you can buy it youy will enjoy it.

Thanks, I guess that our tractor must have been repainted by a prior owner at some point to look like a 20 series ... If I recall correctly my dad probably bought the tractor in the late 60's or early 70's...

I'll start trying to track it down, I'm pretty sure ours had both live HD and live pto, as I remember baling with it, and stopping the tractor without stopping the PTO.

What years were they made ?
Did anyone make a Front end loader that fit a 60 low seat std??

The low seat 60 was pretty much an updated AR which I'm pretty certain already had live hydraulics. The live upgrade was the available continuous pto. No power steering or rockshaft. The rad was the old large diameter cap style and ran unpressurized. The carb was updated to duplex. A loader tinkered onto a low seat 60 would be unhandy at best without power steering and have limited capacity. Shipped from Aug 6th 1953 to Dec 3rd 1954. 196 all-fuels built and 1748 gassers. My recently departed Grandfather's low seat 60 is still in the family and is a tribute to beaten/abused tractors that still run in spite of it's condition. Someone around here has been advertising a "restored" low seat 60 for at least the past six months. $5500.00 Canadian peso's,complete with a mower if memory serves correctly.

The 60's also had a water pump added.
