Jim: As Paul said I would be on you. IH designed the A for cultivating, you have found another use. I never had an A. I do have a Super A, 130 and 140 and have found lots of uses for them. One of the absolutely meanest little snow plowing machines I've ever used. Raking hay, mowing, you name it just about anything other tractors will do, only on a smaller scale. I have a picture here somewhere of Farmall 130, me in seat, pulling bob sleds with 2 cords of 4 foot pulpwood. The tractor pulled that right from stump where it was cut, using corked chains. There was about as much snow as we have right now. My dad hired these two guys who needed some work to cut this wood just before Xmas. Our plan was to haul this wood out in early Jan. with 300 before it went for rebuild. Clutch center broke out on 300 before woods duty came along. We pulled the 158 cords of 4 foot pulpwood from bush on 113 loads. Until we had the trail beaten down some of the loads weren't that large. No question you need to try more things with the A.
