Noticed a Farmall C on a trailer going to the MCC auction at the fairgrounds this morning. Decided to investigate what it looked like up close and personal. It had one of the "looks good from the road" paint jobs and had C decals. Talked to the older gent that had bought it to fix up for the charity auction (Mennonite Central Commitee)and he said it was a '51 C. Got to looking it over an found it had too many SC features to be a C.... water pump, temp guage on the hydraulics, curved clutch and brake pedals. Tag was unreadable except for the S/N and I didn't have a pencil to copy that down, but I'm pretty certain it's an early Super. It sounded good when fired up, but later I wondered about the hydraulics... the touch control levers were positioned even with each other, but the double arms on the left side were mis-aligned. I would like to see it started again to see if they both move okay.
also a late JD B, Case D and Ford 8N (late side distributor) were there to be auctioned off. The Case had a beautiful paint job and decals on the sheet metal, the JD was not too bad and the Ford and SC were, as mentioned, good from a distance but not so good up close.

Elliott said while this
