Went over to a buddies house today and brought the H with the 2 bottom plow becuase he needed help plowing his 14 acre rye field. He was supposed to get a manual plow for his 77 Oliver but the guy didnt bring it over so we just used mine. Now you gotta remember this is my first time plowing something more than a garden so it was different. He spread chicken litter while I plowed. Boy was it fun listenin to the H bark with that plow. Put her in 2nd and sometimes even 3rd on the flat ground. It just walked the dog with it. Now here's the good part. Like I said, my buddy has a 77 Oliver that he was trying to get a 2 bottom manual plow for becuase he doesnt have hydraulics and he wasn't able to get it. Well he really wanted to see what the 77 could do so what I did was take my plow and get it in the ground and then unhook it and hook his tractor to it and see what'd it do.(You probably thing I'm crazy now!) Well, we hooked the 77 to the plow and he couldn't even budge it and hes got wheel weights too. It would just sit there and spiin even when using the individual brakes. So I take the H and hook back up to the plow while its in the same position as it was for him and put it in 1st and just go on with it. Didn't spin at all! I knew they don't call em Farmall's for nothing!! Well about 3 hours later and some scoured moldboards I got a few acres plowed. I didn't think plowing could be so much fun. I like sitting up on the seat listenin to that H bark turning the soil. Sorry guys I'm just excited about it. Thanks! RC

Most judgements on what should be purchased rather than fabricated stem from: Originality - If the tractor restoration is to be 100% original, it is likely that you should spend the time and money to locate the component in the used or New-old-stock market.
