That "pull to start" strap original too? ;)

Always been JD fan, but cut my eye teeth on a neighbors H when I was 11 years old and he had horse-drawn equipment (loose hay, oat binder, etc.) and needed some help driving the "horse" replacement. Those model Farmall's were good tractors.
Haha no we needed to charge the battery and get it out from under the barn awning ;). The 4 wheeler is great for towing it around!

The biggest issue has been the carb, and the starter. My brother caught the engine block on fire this July trying to clear the pistons of gas! Had to get the extinguisher. He asked my Dad (he’s 87) if he could try again…Dad said hell no. LOL

Saw these in my travels today. I think there was a sign saying vintage tractor show, or sale.
Apologies for the crappy resolution.

Shows two of the JD that I owned back in the day. An LA for a few years in the 60's, and the 430 Utility I owned in the 70's and 80's. Upright two-cylinders.

The LA was owned by a neighbor when I was 2-3 years old and can remember walking in the furrow behind the one-bottom moldboard plow. 1941 and 1942.
