I know that a M is more tractor than what I need. If I was looking based soley on what I will be using it for I would be looking at super A"s or Super c"s. However I really want a tractor that was produced at the Farmall tractor plant in Rock Islend, Illinois during the time that both my father and my grandfather were working there. I believe that My grandfather started working there in 1924 and that my father started in 1928. I know that they were both working there as machinists in 1930. I know that they were both layed off later in the 30"s and that they both returned to work there after the depression. I know that they both worked on F20"s but I really dont want anything that old, at least for a first tractor. Since my grandfather died in February of 1947 and may have been off work for a couple of months before that I need to get a tractor no newer than a 46 if it came out of that plant while they were both working there. That limits my choice to either a H or a M and I think that I can get a M cheaper than a H. Although I would buy a H if the right tractor came along at the right price. I have had some experience with tractors built in the 40"s and 50"s but have not been on one in over 30 years.
