After 56 years she can still earn her keep. We had her out this weekend working some ground to plant some sunflowers for a good ol southern dove hunt this fall. My daddy bought this tractor new in the Fall of 1949 and she continues to perform today. They just don't make them like they used to.

And if you take good care of the old girl she will still be earning her keep in another 56 years. I seriously doubt that any of the modern tractors will be able to make that claim.

What size disc you got her hooked to? Been looking for one for my "H".

We are pulling a John Deere BWA 8 foot disk behind the little H and it handles it quite well. The H does have a super kit in it though.
