After all the great responses, I will mention a few particulars for you guys. The tractor is a very early 1939 Minneapolis Moline " RT" with a factory built cab. 405 cabs were built for "R" s before W W 2,only.
It has a low volume 'live' hyd. system to operate mounted implements, as this corn planter/ fertilizer rig. Rear tires are Good Year 'S 3' meaning they are W W 2 era in poor cond. Planter is in working cond. We have been
M-M people for 50 yrs. now , but do not know of another cab tractor/ planter outfit. Thank you for all the fine comments . clint

Thats a nice looking piece of history. You should be proud. How noisy is it in the cab?

About the noise, cab and gear noise together is terrible. No sound proofing was used at all back then. I use ear muffs when driving . clint

WOW ! That's beautiful! I still think MM was ahead of their time. I don't know why they didn't catch on around here.
How much does an armed guard/insurance cost?
