Hello everyone. I know I recently posted that I had to spend my tractor money on my family, and was giving up looking for an H for a while. Well, that's true, but darn it if a nice gentleman I met didn't go and find me an H his friend had, and call me up today to come look at it. Who am I to say no? It's a '44 H, and close to my home. Not sure on the price yet, I'm guessing I'll offer $500 since it doesn't run and needs a number of parts, and HOPEFULLY, we can work out a payment plan. The motor has been rebuilt and was working fine so I'm told, but the tractor quit for some unknown reason and they were unable to get it started again. The farm is converting to vinyards, so the M's and H are too big, so the owner is selling. I didn't meet the owner, as he was working out of town.Anyway, I couldn't get a better angle on the left side of the tractor, since the shed wall was in the way, but I wanted to ask about this manifold. It looks new. Is there any way to tell if it's original and just refurbished? I'm hoping it's an original all-fuel manifold that just needs the heat shield, but I don't know how to tell. It looks square, like I've seen them, but other than that, I'm clueless.
