Alright, so our plow day has for the most part been planned. It is going to be at our local U of I extension office, RIGHT in the middle of town! Supposed to be about 30 acres, and it is the perfect place for publicity!
Me and dad have been discussing possible tractor/implement combos, and I was kind of wondering what you guys would think of each?
The location is right next to Sand Creek (gee, I wonder why they named it SANDpoint??) and it is supposed to be mostly sandy ish loam. Pretty dry, or so I have been told..
Here are my choices, I want to have a RESTORED tractor pulling my RESTORED Case Plow:
1949 Farmall C, New Engine, NO ballast, + Case plow OR 1954 JD 40T, Original Engine, Loaded tires, + Case Plow
At my first ever plow day, the Farmall C really struggled to pull someone else's 2 x 14 plow, however after words I discovered that the plow had just hit a stump and was doing "funny stuff" after we got my first plow home (JD 2 x 14) I plowed up a very clay ish part of the meadow that hadn't been touched in years just fine, sooooo??
Then I have my newest tractor, 1952 Super C, and I think I am going to have it plowing with the JD 2 x 14 plow mentioned above.
And then we are also going to disc it, and I am going to take my 1947 JD B and an Oliver 7 ish foot disc, will it pull it okay?
If you have any questions I will be more than happy to answer them, what do you guys think? Bryce

Today's Featured Article - What Price Enthusiasm? - by Anthony West. Quite frankly, for some time now restorers like myself have become more and more concerned about the rapid increase in the prices of old farm machines here in England. There is now a growing market for "As found" machines. Which as machines get rarer, has found the birth of a new industry....one of the "procurement agent". These agents appropriate as much old machinery as possible then inflate prices at auctions. So at what price enthiusiasm? We are now seeing poor machines which 3 years ago ma
