I really enjoy these antique tractors. This photo shows my 1943 Farmall H which is my first tractor that used to be my Grandpas. I've put lots and lots of work, time and money into these tractors, but they are more than worth it. I bought the JD A in June from a auction sale for $575.00. Hope to get them both to WMSTR when they are fixed up and restored. I am 14 years old and I really enjoy these tractors! They are a lot of fun. Thanks for looking. Andy Motteberg. :)

Nice looking pair of tractors Andy! I am partial to the "A"!
I see you have the pictures down too... Good work!
Take a lot of pics during the restoration process! It would be fun to watch your progress!

Thanks for the comment Mark. I really like both of them, but the H is my favorite, it was my Grandpas and is a very special tractor to me. I very much like the JD too. I hope to pull at WMSTR with the A if I get it done for the JD 2008 show. The JD has .045 over M&W Add Powr Aluminum pistons- a good start!
:D

Those are nice tractors Andy. I have always liked H's too. I grew up with them.

Andy,
I'm more of a John Deere guy. I have a 1949 J.D. B in my shop!!!:cool:
If you have your A at the 2008 show maby you could join Grant and I at the tractor pull (if we have it).:bump:
