1938 MH 25 update.

Masseyharrisnut · Jul 31, 2023

Just got word that my 25 is 99 % done at the paint shop. I have a decal question. The decals that go on the small gas and water tank where not included in the kit. I need to know what the look like and say if anyone has a picture that would be great. Thanks for now.

Don't have a clue about the decal but its a really neat old tractor

Those MH tractors with that styling are very nice.
And they were well built strong tractors.

Perhaps when you get it back you can post a bunch of pictures so can see what they looked like, The 2 on this post are too dark to tell much. MH was never a popular make of tractors in my area. And at that time just about every tractor was 2 row cultivating type of tractor. So never even saw one and if it was not for your posts would not ever have known they made a tractor like that. How big a tractor is it, 2 plow or 3 plow? Looks to be more than a single plow tractor. At 79 not too old to learn.

Hi Leroy. The 25 was a 40 belt horsepower tractor and where considered a 3 to 4 plow tractor depending on your soil type. This tractor was bought new by my great uncle. Made the decision right or wrong to give it a really nice show quality paint. I will post pictures when I get it back. Thanks for the interest Leroy.

The styled ones are nice looking tractors. Good field tractors for sure. Thanks Richard.

Thank you traditional farmer.

This is what it looked like before I started working on it.

I'm waiting with bated breath for the reveal. And thanks again for the visit. It was too short! We did get some berries picked but were late in coming down on your side of the mountain. I'm assuming you are back on the farm and the boat is in the barn? steve

Are these the little tank decals you are talking about?

Found on the 'net'. steve

I did a little more research, and the photo is from Tractor Data. Here's a blowup of the decals.

Hi Steve. Our visit was to short for sure. I really enjoyed meeting you and your wife. We are heading home tomorrow morning. Time to go harvest the peas. Those are the decals Im talking about yes. I found that picture last night as well. Trouble is I cant read what all it says. Thanks again for having me to your place to see your tractors. I really enjoyed it.

I have a note in to Peter, at Tractor Data, to see if he has contact info on the owner of the 25 in the photo. Obviously a complete restore. It would be nice to find out where the decals came from. steve

It would be nice to know that. Thank you Steve.

Peter sent me a better pic of the decal:

Thank you very much Steve. Thats a great picture. That will make the decal store happy. Getting close to reveal time.
