Any interest in these?

[JB4310]

Found these today heading to a job, they look like show machines, they're painted so nicely, but I know they are still used on a local nursery stock farm, they are a huge outfit growing all kinds of evergreens. I could almost walk under the tallest of the farmalls, it's so high, can't really tell by the pic.
Wondered if they were of any interest to you vintage guys, the JD is just a show piece as far as I can tell.

IH "high crops". Those baby's are worth $$$$$$.$$ to serious collectors.

Are these machines even considered vintage? around how old are they? looks like they just cleaned them up/restored them for the up coming season. they are museum quality clean, but you can see by the way they are equipped that they're ready for work. not really sure what's going on there.

I would think they easilly qualify for at least 'classic'..

What age range cutoff were you thinking about?

That's a seriously huge portal axle on that Farmall.
Those look more like working tractors than museum pieces.

Those are sharp looking rigs. It looks like they are still using them. I wouldn't be suprised if they hadn't had more than one collector offer to take them off there hands. Those are some serious looking sprayers and weights mounted on the 656. Was that the original style seat for the hi-crop model?

These tractors are vintage tractors now. They are still in the fields because of how great they are but they are also finding their way into collections. This pic of four high crops is a great pic and I enjoyed seeing it. You do not see them very often in as great a condition as these four.

These tractors were from the late 60's thru 70's if I remember correctly. They were around the same time as the John Deere 10 and 20 series.

Oh, that JD 620 reminds me of my old model B. These do still look like work tractors with some modern upgrades. I'm sure if they were show tractors, they wouldn't put a Crapsman tool box on it.

If you post those photos on the RedPower forum, you'd cause grown men to wet their beds! Those machines are pretty sharp. Thanks.

Mornin John,
Those are great pics of some real fine tractors ! I have two Farmalls, an old 42 Farmall A and a 49 Super A, but if I had the room I would love to have any of those machines, especially the 656 !

 

[JB4310]

I'm a little confused, I thought they were all the same, did IH buy Farmall or were they they same company all along,? they all say 656 except the hydro model.

Mornin John,
The " Farmall " name was used on many of International Harvesters" tractors. All the same company just that they used the Farmall name on certain products. Im sure others on the forum could be a bit more definitive !

All the letter series tractors were Farmalls, A, B, C, H, M along with all the Super series etc. The F-20, F-30 also used the Farmall name.

Hope this helps somewhat !

Back in the day, "FarmAll" was the name on all row crop tractors and "International" was on the standard tread (wheatland) models. Both were International Harvester products. FarmAll was a trade name IH used on their first row crop model.


(Howdy Scotty! Good to hear from ya!)
