I have a few of the W series tractors in various states of disrepair. Some still work in the field, especially my WD-9"s and one Super WD-9. If someone was to start reproducing engine parts it would be a gift from god to me. Finding parts has reached the point of impossible in my opinion. Sometimes you can "luck out" but not often. I agree, it gets down to the production numbers being lower than the Farmalls so the usual repro companies just don"t see the 9"s as a good market.
The 9 series tractors were not meant to be "yard tractos" or haying tractors. They were work horses meant for hard, heavy pulling and in my opinion they did it well. A "9" will outshine a "6" in the field. I run both and enjoy it, a W-6 or WD-6 does not have the same power and the steering is awful compared to a "9". I pull a 5-14 plow with a pony press drill, 15 foot cultivator, or 15 foot disker with my Super WD-9. It is a nice load for the tractor and it works well--even in river valley gumbo. The Super WD-9 has 12000 hours and the engine has never been apart. If you take good care of them they will last a long, long time.
A little long winded, bought thought everyone might enjoy the story from the field.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
