'64 Ford 4000 with S-O-S trans. Correction, JD 2010 with a FEL, thought that maze shift lever on the dash was interesting, but way too young to know what I was doing, rolled it a few feet after popping it into neutral, I shouldn't have been on it at that age, my parents were a little self absorbed back then to say the least as they were nearby when this happened.

Had the run of the Ford dealership, entire lot full of blue ones back then, + some yellow industrial models. Shame I don't still have that 4000, it was a great tractor, very useful, and had creature comforts like power steering, independent PTO, and 1 set of remotes. It handled a 532 ford baler just fine, spent a lot of hours cutting with a brush hog. Lest I not forget the all time favorite, the old WW-II Cat D7, that was good stuff for a kid, the sound of that old 4 cylinder barking under a load could be heard quite a ways. Watching the starting process was also good stuff. Still have that one and another about 1000 serial numbers apart. We also had a JD B for awhile too. Was fun to learn about these things as a kid, later on it was good knowledge.
