How many Farmall F-30 tractors were sent to the east coast?

Red rim · Mar 21, 2016

Hi! This is my first post on this form and I'm excited to see what can be learned among fellow tractor enthusiast. So many thanks in advance!

As the title says just how many F-30 tractors were sent to the east coast in the 30s? They were the biggest and the most expenses unit of the F-series and were more suited for large farms, but just how many were shipped out herein PA?

I've been hunting a Narrow F-30 for a few years now and always seem to find dead leads.

Regards, Red rim

No way to tell how many were shipped where at this time. Only if Wis. Hor. can find recoards. Nebraska Kirk posted a 1934 F-30 NT for sale in photo adds. oldiron29

They pop up in PA sometimes. Gotta keep an eye open and be willing to travel.

I have seen a few here in NYS.

I don't mind traveling as long as its not more than Maryland or Delaware but they just seem relatively rare. Most I see are normally restored (call me odd) but I like a tractor in its original work cloths. Anyway would anyone happen to have one? I suppose shipping is a option for me.

Red Rim, welcome. What part of Pa are you from? Don't have to be exact. There are Quite a few Red fans on here.

As Oldiron29 pointed out, I have a 1934 Duckbill narrow tread F30 for sale, you can look it up in the photo ads.

F30s are pretty common out here in the midwest, I have 5 of them myself. I have no idea how many were shipped to the east coast, I would venture to say not very many.

Tom Fleming, a member of this board, may chime in later. He is in Pennsylvania too and has an F30.

Lancaster and Narvon PA are close to me, but I know the West Chester area as well. I have a 34 Farmall F-12 with single front wheel and fenders along with a spoked F-20 Narrow and I've been wanting to complete the collection for some time.

That's a nice F-30 you have there Nebraska Kirk but I've only got around $2500 to play with at the moment not counting if I have to get one shipped.

They must not have been all that common in Central Iowa. I don't remember seeing one. I am 62. There were quite a few 20's still working in the early 60's. My uncle lived just south of Des Moines and he had an F20 collection and an F30.
Maybe I was too young to see them around, or didn't recognize the differences between the 20 and 30.
