Name that Tractor

Or what's left of it. I have my suspicions, wanted to check in with those in-the-know. What say ye? Looks to be freshly-picked from the fence row.

BTW if you can't live without it, it'll be up for sale tomorrow morning at the Berryville Steam show in VA. Great collection of old steam, some tractors I've never seen or heard of. If you're in that area you should go, show ends Sunday.

McCormick-Deering 15-30

I'm thinking W30.

RogerinIowa · Jul 23, 2021

Wasn't W30 a six cylinder? This is 4 cylinder. Fenders say IHC.

10-20 or 15-30 with heavy road wheels
W30 didn't have that belt pulley shaft cover bolted down under fuel tank.

I'm always amazed by the level of tractor knowledge here. My guess was M-D 10-20 and I had the benefit of seeing the ID tag still riveted to the firewall. Could only make out the McCormick-Deering and barely that. Couldn't tell what model.

I've had 10-20s on my mind so that's what I decided it was.

If it fetches the value of the rear wheels it'll be well sold. Sorry I can't make it to the sale, if anyone goes please share the selling price.

McCormick 15-30. There is one in the Museum in Holdrege Ne with the same rear wheels.

The steering wheel is off set on the right, so 15-30, the 10-20 steering wheel was more in the centre. The tractor has the road wheels, twice as many spokes. All 10-20 and 15-30 sold in NZ had the road wheels.

I have a W30 - they are 4 cylinder. The W40 was 6 cylinder.

McCormick 15-30 or 22-36

(quoted from post at 20:36:26 07/23/21) The steering wheel is off set on the right, so 15-30, the 10-20 steering wheel was more in the centre. The tractor has the road wheels, twice as many spokes. All 10-20 and 15-30 sold in NZ had the road wheels.

I was wondering what set the two tractors apart visually, thanks for the information. Here's a bonus pic unrelated to the 15-30 but it's a little tyke in the auction section from the days when putting big tractor names on dinky toys was all the rage.
