New member, first tractor, I'm really excited!

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.

Welcome from Lancashire!!! I recently bought my first tractor too. Isn't it a great feeling? I've found TBN an invaluable source of info, so I'm sure you will too.

Welcome to TBN, Bob! You're correct. TBN is a fantastic source for information
on tractors, attachments and solutions to problems.

Welcome to TBN--join the fun:thumbsup:
You'll have a ball restoring your 420. Keep posting as you make progress.
I have a 1948 Farmall Cub in pieces in my shop. Working on valve seats now.

Good luck
