Sadfarmall, I enjoy seeing you posts.
I have the first original farmall f12 that was my grandfathers. It was bought in 1935, came with a lil genious single bottom plow. They were both red. For those of you who say there was no red farmalls til nov 1936, well this one was bought 1935 and was red. No gray, even under the red paint.
This 1935 model farmed 82 acres along with a team of morgan horses; through sandy soil and sampy muck. Using a horse drawn scoop, the tractor dug the basement of grandmas and grandpas house; the house I now live in. It was used to move brooder houses as the farm raised 1200 phesants, 500 turkey, and 500 chickens. It was replaced by a used 1958 cub lo boy in 1966. From then on the F12 was used to run a manure spreader, unfortuneatly it would require pull start to get it running. In 1983, while I was in 9th grade, I began restoring it. Stiil today it is the most dependable tractor of the 30 I have. I use it in the wihter time to run a buzz saw and to drag firewood when it"s too icy to have the draft horse in harness.
