If you were closer I've got a '41 Ford 9N I'm done with that I'd make you sweet deal on.
That would be quite a road trip. What's its top speed?
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

I learned to drive on a Farmall Super H.
Be very careful with those croprow tractors, they flip easy. Are you looking to buy an H or a M?

It's a 706 from 1963. It's older than I am.
Go look at when the H and Ms were made. I think the one i mentioned was made in the early 40s, and afaik, is still chugging along at the properties current incarnation as a jewish girls retreat. Iirc, the Farmall churned out nearly 400k H models.

Im still wondering about the sanity of thinking it was a good idea to put independent brakes on a crop row tractor..

Well I'm comfortable at 65mph with it on a 16' flatbed trailer behind my 7.3 Excursion.

The guy told us to come look at it Sunday night, but... he sold it Sunday afternoon. The search continues.

Brother in law passed yesterday. Not unexpected but a fracking bummer nonetheless.

My condolences.
