Purchased this tractor over the weekend. Has sat for over 15 years. It was given to my dad once and owners changed his mind so Sunday they gave him the chance to purchase it. We already have two m"s but couldn"t stand to see this one just sit there and rot away.

Did the price include the trees?

When you get it restored be sure and repost before and after good luck and great save I bet it will be happy to be in a nice shed for a change.

Is that an M+W friction throttle I can sort of see in the first picture? I really liked the one I had on my H. Looks like a nice complete loader too, is it a #30?

Just the little ones we actually cut a hard left and spun it out of the other trees. And yes it has a m and w had throttle and number 30 loader that is complete. We unfortunately had to cut the left break cover off and cut the brake band because the pedal was left down and brake was froze up. Motor is loose and had compression surprisingly so we may try to start her and see where we need to go from there.

I have used covers and bands if you need spares.

Nice find. A diamond in the ruff. Not sure, but it looks post WWII to me. I love those old contoured poka dot seats. Nice to see it has a belt pulley. Had to go to ebay to get mine.

Best regards

Appears to have the dirt scoop over the tines--if not rusted out. Wasn't someone looking for a pattern for that tine cover a couple weeks ago?
Nice unit to restore.

What model of tractor is in the shed?

JT's RandR · Mar 25, 2014

There are two cubs in the barn but not getting rid of them. And serial number shows it"s a 51. And Zac I"ll keep that in mind we need a cover for sure but will probably put new bands on. But we want to see what we actually have before we get to far.

It is an earlier M because it doesn't have the offset gear shift.
