Mike, don't get in a hurry, wait, take your time, watch for farm sales in the paper, watch for ads for machinery for sale, but take your time. I have two H's and a B250 that came to me cheap because I waited and found out where they were and made a reasonable offer on my terms. I got a terrific H and a 6' field cultivator with it for $650, that H is the best running gas tractor I own. My B250 came to me through a friend who told me his sister in law had an old tractor she wanted to get rid of..$750..a good working little diesel. You will find many tractors in the mid west, you may have to travel and haul one back to California but take your time. There's lots of tractors up in Oregon as well. I beleive the key is to not jump at the first one you see, look around, if a seller is serious he will get back to you, don't be afraid to make an offer for less than the asking price. Finally don't let the stars get in your eyes, tractor shows are nice but your tractor doesn't have to go to one untill you have had plenty of time to get it done up and painted and in show condition. Don't let that force you to buy something your gut feeling tells you not to buy. Again Ihave always waited, took my time and I am very satisfied with the tractors I have got and the price I paid. I am sure I could double my money any time I want. Good luck Mike, you'll find the right one eventually.

Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
