Found this 1972 IH 140 in a barn, came with fast hitch, fertilize and full set of cultivators. Runs great! Sheet metal is straight, bumper is straight, pretty sure it has original tires on it.

Nice one! I've got a '74 key start with FH...I don't think those are the original rear tires///are the rears filled??? If so check the stems for corrosion...I had a bad one on mine...just lucked out that I found an original rim with the square bolt holes (can't get a new one with squares any more ---that I know of anyway..). Is it 12 volt?? BobG in VA

As tight as this tractor is ad as weather cracked as the front and rear tires are I'd say they are original. Pretty sure the rears are filled. I hope to be putting new ones on it soon. It is 12V with generator still on it and charging.
