Jimmy: If your an old iron guy, by all means, your welcome. One bit of warning, you'll not get much info out of me about pre 1939 IH tractors.

Dad picked rocks with horses and a 2 wheeled cart. At noon, grand dad suggested dad take the Fordson and that he would pick rocks. I guess we can assume the Fordson was that bad.
