I learned to drive a tractor on a SC when I was only about 6 could bearly reach the clutch and the brakes. Dad had wired wooden blocks to them.
Some neighbors had attach fence wire from the hydraulics to the clutch and brakes so the sons could operate the SC by using the hydraulic levers.
We had a front end loader, mower, cultivators, 2 furrow plow and 6 foot IH disks. Had both wide and narrow front ends. Dad did a lot of custom work with the front end loader. Used it on a 45 baler but had to be careful going down steep hills as the baler would push the SC. Had a belt pulley used it to drive a hammer mill and in the early days a thresher and later a NH silage blower. It was the best for mowing and cultivating corn with that NFE. Although I was never allowed to cultivate corn. In 1958 Dad traded SC, mower, and cultivator for a 300U.
Everytime I see a SC at show it brings back good memories of times when life was much simpler and farmers were paid a decent $ for their products.
