17 years ago I bought a '52 Super C. It ran good, was in good shape, Touch Control, Fast Hitch, 2 btm. plow with it. About 5 years ago, I put a Central Tractor 3 pt. conversion on it and run a 5' foot hog for keeping my pastures down; I hog about 22 acres each year. This has been my main tractor for all of this time. About a year ago it started smoking so over the winter, my son and I tore it down and re-did the engine. Well, "while you're at it, why don't you do the clutch too, recondition the radiator, etc., etc,..." Well, we are now about a month away from painting it. But, I guess I got off on a tangent; this tractor has done all of my serious work, what little there is on 40 acres, since 1985. It is the only tractor I have that I would not sell, if I had to sell some of the others. It's handy, maneuverable and with the 3pt. conversion, you have the best of both worlds for implements. This tractor will "pull a lick" too at the local fairs and shows, much to the surprise of some people. Anyway, the best tribute about a Super C came from a JD man, a guy who bleeds green and yellow; he had never even driven one and then after driving mine, offered to trade me his good JD 50 for it. Now, the JD 50 is a nice tractor but for me and what I do, I wouldn't part with my Super C. I had a JD B once but sold it.) Little long-winded here but I guess you now know how I feel about a Super C!
