Looks like I will be inheriting my father in laws tractor.... He recently passed ...RIP...
he had it restored about 3 years ago...

I'm excited and my wife is really excited to have one of her daddy's tractors on our farm.

Those are pretty good old tractors. He had good taste!

Sorry to hear about your father in law. You have a real treasure there.....nice memories!

Thank Ya'll very much.... I'm anxious to see it.... these pics are all I've ever seen of it.

He bought this tractor brand new in 1971 according to his wife.
His son who does not farm and who insisted we get the tractor has memories of driving it many times.

Wow! What is a nice looking tractor! A man I worked for back in my teen years had one of those (slightly bigger), great machine.

Sorry for your loss.
Glad see it staying in the family. It has a history, bought new, used, and then restored. I know how he felt about it. Good it was not just sold off.
First tractor I drove was an AC WD45.

That AC 170 looks great and I would bet your FIL would be happy knowing it will be used and enjoyed for many years.
