I am a machinist and also assemble automated machines. Have built machines for a major medical company, labeling machines and now packageing machines. Both my grandfathers farmed and I grew up helping the neahbors then after I graduated High school and votech I spent about 5 years as a hired hand for a large farmer running some very nice newer "green" tractors. Meany years ago dad got a 36 F-20 from his dad that he used till one day it through a rod and wreched the block. I looked at that tractor for meany years and even gathered parts to one day fix it up as a young lad with the help of my uncle. well about 20 years later my other grandfather passed and he had been tinkering with an old M and I thought it would be nice to have as a loader tractor so i asked the family and took it home. Found out with the help of this bourd it was a low serial number 39 M so now its time to start restoring, looked and decided it was better to find a nicer f-20 to restore and use ours as a donor so ended up finding a nice very late 39 F-20 that I is done now, hopeing to paint the M yet this fall and 2 weeks ago I found a 39 H that I'll work on next. Also have a very early unique 38 Oliver 80 Row crop.
