As you said - in its heyday these were the life blood of a farm. The only problem is we are about 30-40 years past its heyday. A lot happens in that amount of time. I know when these old tractors became "peripheral" equipment in the late 1960s and 1970s they were indeed run until they dropped - it was cheaper to buy another good running unit than it was to spend the time and money on an overhaul or major repair. It still is.

I like my old 350 Farmall and it runs like a top but when the wear and tear finally mount up the chances of it seeing an out of frame overhaul are “0”. It makes much more economic sense to keep adding oil and eventually park it under a tree and buy another one or buy modern diesel then waste that kind of money on it.
