My first tractor

[JDGreenGrass]

A John Deere B would be the perfect first tractor for anyone.:thumbsup:

If you have tasks that it won't handle, keep the B and get another tractor.

Classic tractor from yesteryear.

I would guess that the B's are collectible enough now that aftermarket parts are readily available, just like for old Jeeps. A quick google will tell you.

Should be pretty easy to work on too.

Ford 8N ? Easy to get parts, cheap to buy, and one of the best looking tractors ever built IMO.

I agree also. In any case, one with a fel for sure.

Admire your drive at your age to own a tractor, but a Camaro goes farther with the girls at that age.. (most of the time) but in retrospect a tractor sometimes is more reliable..

Hey, she thinks his tractor's sexy!

There were quite a few B's built and parts are readily available. You see alot of B's at the antique tractor shows in my area. I have a 1947 B in the shed but it is in dire need to be restored. Cannot go wrong with the 2 cylinder John Deeres, if you are sum what mechanically incline you can work on the engines easily. They were made to be repair by the farmers themselves.

Here's one listed on Graig's list North of Ft. Worth, not a bad deal with the implements.
