Well, I know several told me not to do it but I just didn't think I would be using it enough to keep it running well and didn't want it to sit idle and not be used like it should be. I got a 1996 Kubota with a loader and decided that if I could get a good price for the M I would go ahead and sell it. I sold it for exactly what I paid for it and got a years worth of use out of it and learned a lot while using it. I sold it for $2,500 with an old post hole digger that I had never used that I got with it when I bought it. The guy I sold it to seems like he will take care of it and really appreciated the care that I had put into it. I told him that he was welcome to call me if he had any questions or anything. My M wasn't a collector's item but a working tractor with an aftermarket 3 point hitch and some oil leaks here and there but I'll miss it. I've still got plenty of pictures of it though! 
Amazing that you can get attached to an old piece of iron in just a year! Thanks everyone for all the great advice and help along the way. This is a GREAT forum and I'll still check in periodically and who knows, maybe I'll end up with another old farmall sometime down the road. Thanks again, Nathan

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.
