I'm Bob Fowler and I live in Salem, NH. I just bought my first "real" tractor (ride-on lawn mower doesn't count), a 1956 John Deere 420U. I've always been fascinated with machinery, farm and industrial, so you can imagine how excited I am to finally have a machine I can use and restore. From browsing through the forums, I can tell this is going to be an invaluable resource.
