Better Than My Pick Up
Model Year: 1950
Good tractor. More torque than horsepower. Hard to stall, runs brush hog strong. Brakes are weak, but, they hold. Pulling and brush hog are strong points. Not useful or desirable for front end loader attachment in my opinion. Better machine than a Case that I had of similar size and weight. Engine is strong for only two cylinders. I see good looking units for sale occasionally, about $2500. Which is a steal, really. If you brush or skid logs, haul a trailer full of firewood, and stuff like that, well find yourself one of these, it's more than enough. If you are in hilly country, and want to pull ploughs or cultivate, it's kind of slow. Won't pull stumps, at lease, not the kind around here, but it works great yanking out wide rose, and dragging an 18" log 30' long through the woods.
Pros: Keeps going and going, easy to start, even after a year or two of sitting.
Cons: No 8-track radio, no place for my girlfriend to sit (no, wait, that a pro!).
