I already knew about the high production numbers which is one of the reasons that I desired a h originally besides the fact that I really liked their looks. High production numbers means lots of parts availability in both the used and new arena. Plus being able to buy a h so cheap made it a no brainer.
I consider myself an unusual collector. What I mean by that is that none of my stuff will be paraded - it must be useable on a hobby hay operation.
Really the only thing that I did not like about the h at first was having to run it wide open throttle in order to get any speed out of it. Really though that is not such a big deal if you think about it. Most newer tractors run much higher rpm's. My Kubota is 2400 rpm at WOT. A Deere 2510 or 2520 is 2500 rpm at WOT (do not own but would love to have one but price precludes it for me) while the Farmall h is 1650 rpm at WOT. I guess what I am saying is running the h at WOT is not really much different than running a newer tractor at a 2/3 throttle setting (2500 x 0.66 = 1650 rpm).
Kinda sad the h gets criticized as much as it does and their values are so low.
