Whatever happened to it it was unintentional to make it go that fast, but I heard the story, then one of the other family members came in and they asked him why they parked it and he said it was too damn fast that it was geared wrong. Towards the end of it's life it was used for tobacco spraying and that was it. One of them remembers pulling the radiator off and he said he might have taken the right side cultivator and left side lift arm for another tractor. They have so many machines that they just parked it and forgot about it.
A lot of farmers still use 140's and super A's on a limited basis for some of the migrant workers to pull tobacco sleds and irrigation pipe, but most farmers I know phased out Farmalls for cultivating. Now farmers are not even using the migrant workers to pull tobacco anymore. They have fancy machines that do it. So they are quickly being phased out. I know one farmer that has a Super A and a 140 that looks like all they use it for is gardens. One for making a raised bed, the other for cultivating and that's about it. It's all John Deeres now with widened axles to go over two rows at a time.
