Chris, I really don't know where to start except to mention the Red Power Round-up is next week in Du Quoin, Illinois at the state fairgrounds. It is our (IHC and Farmall) annual national tractor show. Not knowing where you live in Indiana but if possible you could spend a day or two at the show and gather a ton of information just walking around and listening, talking to some of the vendors, etc. Hotel or motel rooms at this point are most likely non-existant but the show runs from July 19th (Thursday) through Saturday July 21st.
I would highly recommend starting with the H as more of them were made then any other Farmall so parts which are needed will not be a problem. A helping hand from someone would be a big plus to help you get started and whenever difficulties pop-up. A mechanical aptitude is certainly helpful to understand the workings and issues you will encounter. The folks on this forum come from all kinds of previous work experiences and some probably have never really spent any real farm time but are like yourself admire the beauty of these relics of the past in operation and want to become involved. We all would welcome your involvement in this wonderful activity which I have found very rewarding in my retirement years (I grew up on a farm as a youth as you did but had to work the dirt), Hal.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
