I have a 1953 Super H that I am in the process of restoring. Mechanically it is a great tractor and was well taken care of by previous users and just needs some cosmetic work. The one thing that needs attention besides a new wiring harness is that it seems to have low oil pressure. After start up the oil pressure is around the middle of the gauge then after a few minutes it drops to right where the redline starts on the gauge.

I will say that I am relativly new to the antique tractors and since reviewing and joining this site I am already looking for the next purchase! :lol:
