That one actually has the features and equipment of a little later Minneapolis Moline BF. The BF, of course, is the BF Avery R after the buyout, with some MM changes.
 
kcm, After my wife saw me enjoying your puzzles each evening, she went to the basement and brought up one of my puzzles off the shelf. In the past this was a way to spend the long
winter evenings, but since retirement, it is a good way to spend a hot summer afternoon. This is not the 15 minute variety like yours but I did brag that I built a barn in an afternoon :)

someone told me once that you could upgrade the Avery R to BF Minneapolis-Moline hydraulics.
 
Beautiful, only way that it could be better is if a couple of more tractors in colors other than green were present! (Just my opinion, not meant to be a wise guy, but it would add more color.)

That's true enough. That's what a lot of the dealers did with the left over Avery inventory after the buyout. A lot of the leftover Rs also got painted to Minneapolis Moline colors at the same time. Mine seems to be one of those.
 
I should have said thank you before now, but I have always looked at and enjoyed your picture posts. The puzzles have also been fun and entertaining and I've much enjoyed them too.
