I wanted to show you guys some pictures of my tractors. The one picture is my grandfathers 1939 Farmall A that i found ond bought back. It needed a complete restoration, front to back and top to bottom. I completly rebuilt the engine, went through the tranny and final drives, new wiring and then i painted it. This is only the second tractor that i have painted. The other picture is my 1973 1468 all ready to go to the field, Now i just need it to stop raining. Thanks to all who ahve helped me.

You never spent all day on one in July in Kansas did you? Of course a cab without AC (or even a swamp cooler) is worse than no cab.

That cab has very good working factory AC and is in very good shape thats why its still on there. I would certianly take the cab on a hot sunny day pulling a cultivator in the dirt and dust. But they are not that quiet inside ill give ya that. I much prefer my 86 series cabs.

Check around for some hard back foam insulation panels, cut to fit and install on the inside areas that are accessable, you can find it in 1/4, 3/8 & 1/2 in thickness, cover it with black yinyl & install with trim washers & screws so it can be removed, you have yourself a very quiet cab then.

I like the looks of that A. What year is it? How is the steering?

The 66 series tractors were the coolest tractors that IH made and the v-8 1468 with out a cab was the coolest of cool only thing that would be cooler would be to add a roll bar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1468 Chris · May 4, 2011

The A is a 1939. The steering is actually pretty tight.

A few pictures.
