445 said as that is what most people would think of Moline, not a odd model most people do not know exist
 
If your sentence read "If (YOU) WOULD have CAPITALIZED the L MIGHT have made more SENSE" it might be easier to figure out. Sometimes you have to read in to what the poster means(LOL)
 
Not in the heading where it belonged. If it would have been where it belonged I would not have even opened it. My peave is failure to put information where it belongs, in heading. And I have NEVER seen a Long tractor here in Ohio, Were they ever sold here in Ohio? Lots of Moline 445 tho.
 
The Long headquarters were in Tarboro NC and mostly sold in the Southern USA as far as I've seen.The 445 Long is the same tractor basically as the AC 5040 and the 1255/1265 Oliver.
Some people give them a bad name but I have quite a few of the Fiat built tractors of that type and they have given me good service, have a tough as nails engine that's pretty easy on fuel.
 
By the time the AC or Oliver had the 4 didjet models none were sold in this part so never saw them. NO or very few dealers for those brands were left here. I don't dought they were a good tractor, just not avaible in these parts of the country. I just wish posters would not skimp on details, no charge for extra words.
 
Question for you. Did you have any of the Canadian made Coop or Cockshut tractors down in your area. Was a fairly popular line of machinery her in Ohio. And the international Cockshutt Club was formed 50-60 mile from me with several neighbore founders. I have heard their sales area did not go that far south.
 
Cockshutts were never sold in Virginia that I know of but FCX the coop in NC sold them,I have several that came from NC including a 20 Tobacco Special called a Little Chief it was set up
as a one row offset tractor unlike most of the other 20's.I also have gotten Cockshutts from PA,NY and Ohio belonged to the Cockshutt Club for awhile they put on some good shows.
