List five tractors that you would like to collect if money was no object. List them even if you already have them if they are your favorites without question.

1. JD 630
2. JD 4050
3. Oliver 1555
4. IH 766
5. IH Super M

In addition even though I don't talk much about some of the other brands AC, Case, Ford, etc have quite a number of worthy models to own. The Case 30 series has always had my interest as a kid.
 
5 is not enough!! How about the top 10? Top of the list, Oliver super88 diesel, Oliver 2150 FWA, Minnie Mo G1000, AC D21, IH 806 Turbo, Case 1030, JD 5020, MF 1155, Ford 9000, Minnie Mo GVI.
 
I'm lucky. Got what I want. For now. Ford 950,960,951,and 640. And a couple farmall cubs. Love the row crop Fords

A farmall H snuck in!
 
I've already got a 4010 and an 8450 to own has interested me for a long time now. Maybe someday.
 
Already have my Grandfather's Farmall H. Always wanted a diesel Farmall 560. Got one of those too. The three I don't have are a Fairbanks Morse 15-25, McCormick OS-6 & a minty, low-houred 3588. Wouldn't turn down a 7488 if I found one before the 3588. But the latter is the important one.

I know that you are a little far south for this but one of the Fords needs to have a 601 or 602 corn picker hanging on it.
 
1. Ford 841 with Elenco front wheel assist and Sherman combo aux trans
2. Ford 860 with Sherman Napco front wheel assist
3. Ford 861 diesel with Elenco front wheel assist and half tracks
4. 1939 Ford 9n with aluminum hood
5. Ford 961 narrow front row crop
Have the first two, but 3 and 4 on list might be harder to come by.
 
Ford 7710 fwa cha,
John Deere 4020
IH 1086
Ford 5610
Ford 6610,
These would be work tractors not restored, first 3 would be way more than id need for haying, but some nice iron.
 
F-20, WD, 450IH, D19, Would like a Case SC. Neighbor says he has his dads, but never have seen it.
 
I’d have to start with a 570 Super Cockshutt. There were 5 cream colored Cockshutts in our neighborhood and if I woulda been smart I woulda grabbed one. A 30-60 Hart-Parr. They are just cool they way they cough, and spit, and pop. A 30-60 Twin City. One of the nicest sounding engines you’ll hear. A large Minneapolis. Again a well built good sounding piece of history. And to top it off a E-B Big 4. You said money was no issue.
 
I cant do 5.. for collecting white 4-270, john deere 3020 ps side console GASSER.

For using JD 4650 mfwd, 4020D syncro, 3010D syncro, 3020G syncro, Ford 861D

Between dad and I we have the last 5..
 
all the WD40's i could find , plus the wk 40's and all the 660's i could find, a 400 case diesel standard, and a massey 201.
 
1. John Deere 830 diesel with pony motor
2. John Deere 4020 Diesel side console
3. Case 2470
4. Massey Ferguson 165 Diesel
5. Farmall 560 Diesel
 
I already have an 830 and 1030 and dad's DC. I would like to get a 1200 and an 870 demonstrator, preferably the later all black one most call the black knight.
 
Sawyer - Massey 11-22

Eagle 16-30

M.O.M. Fordson

Ferguson/Brown Model "A"

MM UDLX , allis g, rumely oil-pull any model, any steam traction engine, john deere 2 cylinder either a LA for looks or a R/70 for sound. With "extra" money I would also include a dual fuel tractor like a wd-9 or MD.
 
I wanted a Ford 5000 of some sort.

Finally got a 5200 a few years ago. Really like it, it’s a working tractor on my place, probably more hours than the rest!

Would like a lower 5000, or a newer 5600 or some such too. Well, both, since this is a wish list.

Have the Ford 960 I took my first solo drive on.

The ihc 300 is a pretty handy baler tractor, glad I have that, also one of the first I drove.

Oliver/White is neat stuff, I have my uncles S77, cool but some of those utility types might be cooler.....

When I was a young boy dad had a 12-20 Oil Pull. I spent a lot of time playing on it. I would also like an Oil Pull 30 60 model S and a 30 - 60 model E. Most of my tractors would be diesel, the Ih WD 40 and then like an IH 600 or 650, A Cockshutt Golden Eagle the tractor that brought the Perkins engines to North American farm tractors, a good Cockshutt 570 Super. The oldest Oliver 88 diesel I could find and then an Oliver 1750 or 1755 diesel. A John Deere B the tractor I first learned to drive, a good 730 Diesel. My boy has a 4020 and I like it. A small Cat like an RD model or a D-2.Got to have some imports like an Oliver 5 or 600, an International B-275 and a Fiat.
 
I'm pretty happy with my stable of 2 cylinder JDs and Minnie-Mos. BUT, since this is a fun thing, I'd like a 4020 (doesn't matter which transmission or fuel), and I always liked those Case 570 series construction tractors. Oh, and could I have my little Massey 35 back? unc
 
If I still had a use for them, John Deere B, John Deere 620 and 720, John Deere R, John Deere 5020, and Ford TW 20 or 30, can't remember which it was.
 
1. Case D First tractor I rode on with my dad.
2. Case VAC First tractor I drove.
3. Case 400D First tractor I really worked with.
4. Case 830D Plowed so fast that I made my dates on Saturday night.
5. JD 720D always loved the sound but never drove one.

Obviously a lot of nostalgia in the choice of above. Have six Cases but none of these models.
 
Being from England originally:-
Fergy TEF diesel
JD 1640
County 1000/4
Fowler ploughing engine (or preferably the pair)
JD 4055 (or 4255) fwa powershift + 280 loader for everyday
Had to suffer a Case 2096 for the everday for 20 years but its finally run out of luck - it can go to China!
 
A Cat D-6 with the 6 cylinder engine, non dozing front idler they are a bit smaller so they climb over things easier like furrows and blocks, ,14or 1586,1456 930 case All diesels and no use for a gas engine. For using tractors 806or 856,4955 Stieger in the 300 plus horse range, and probably something like a 2950 or something more nimble for a loader tractor with MFWD and lots of hydraulic volume like 20 pluss GPM with 2500 or more PSI. I want it to lift and move without taking all day to reach the top like those feeble IH 12GPM pumps do. A working No.6 Traxcavator (D-6with a loader on) would also work in place of the D-6. That has 50 GPM with 2000 PSI made in the 50's.
 
Had these, but sold the gas 8n and 860 to help settle dad's estate. Bought the 1210 and 671-D myself. Bought the 961-D and 5200 from dad. Would like to get the 860 back though. Would like a 7710 with FWA and loader and a 1 row mounted picker for the 671.

MM UDLX, MF 150 diesel, Oliver 1655 or 1755 diesel , JD 530, Ford 800 series w/ elenco mfwd .
 
I still remember a couple of 5X88 tractors sitting on the lot at F & W on Rte 14A shortly before they sold out to Finger Lakes Tractor. Seems like forever ago now.
 
I have a farmall Super M and Super C to duplicate what I ran as a kid and four Wheel Horses and a JD 110 garden tractor because I had to mow a big azz yard with a push mower as a kid. The only thing I'd like to have now is the commemorative limited edition Wheel Horse that has the eighty chrome parts.
