Dad bought his first C new in I believe 1949, or possibly it was '50. He "downsized" from 200 acres to 100 in 1956, had a sale and sold the first C. I had done cultivating, mowing, raking and small jobs with that C.
After moving to the 100 acre farm, he still had a JD 60 with a mounted corn picker that did not sell on the sale, so he traded it to the local IH dealer for a new "carry-over" 1954 Super C with all the Fast Hitch and a few other implements he needed to run the smaller farm.

All through high school I did almost all the farm work and spent many hours on that Super C... it was a great little tractor. In '59 we took on more farm ground and bought another JD 60 and did less tillage with the SC, but it still did all the cultivating, mowing, etc.
