Mike: Initially I wasn't going to respond, however I have one bit of advice. Buy a Sterling Mint 1/12 scale Farmall H in memory of your grandfather, and display it proudly on your mantle. Forget about buying a real tractor for about two years.

In the meantime, read about 80% more and type about 80% less. I know you remember Grandpa's H, but you remember far less than you realize. I see this on forums everyday, and it hit close to home last fall. My brother who left the farm as a teenager, probably operated that old Farmall 300 more than I did back then, however also probably never looked at one since he was 18. I took him to visit a friend of mine, who has about 25 working Farmalls, amoung them a 300. Well, he argued with us for close to an hour, that the 300 he remembered had TA lever on right and IPTO on left. I'm not sure we convinced him. My friend and I probably had close to 65 years combined around a 300.

YOU ARE NOT READY TO BUY A TRACTOR.
