In Reply to: Preferred Old Tractor for Antique Tractor Drive posted by Tony in SD on January 01, 2020 at 17:43:59:

We do not have those multi state-day tractor drives in my part of the country. Here a tractor drive is sponsered by a local tractor club and you must be a member of that club to parcipate. And they are about 30 mile and 5-6 hour long having different stops at interesting places and figuring time for lunch. And on this type of drive the tractors are all to old to have a cab or even be in the over 40 horsepower size. They are all what the owner has in his colection and it might be his first tractor, dads tractor or the one he pulls his manure spreader with just hosed down to halfway clean. Mostly tractors of the 40's with some up to mid 50's. Hard pressed to find any newer ones than that. You don't want any 4 speed Deeres or Farmall F series, Allis is probably out because of a 4 speed tranney not doing 12 MPH and that would be about average to top speed of most tractors in the drive. If you are interested in that type of drive find a local club or three, join and learn to know the guys and when if they do have a drive and not all clubs will have them they will help uou figure out what to use and if you have not yet gotten a tractor one of the club members might just loan you one to be able to be in the drive. But about tops in numbers would be 30 tractors being more likely 20-25 tractors. And some will pull a trailer with gas cans on if you run out, chains if you need pulled, tools to get you restarted and also a couple of seats for owners family. I know knothing about those big multi state-day drives as if they were around and I had a tractor for that I still would not go even being retired as you would not get the personal interaction.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
