I feel an open work station will most likely be most practical for me as the 25x50' driveshed having smaller doors to allow the Super M just to squeeze under the top of the roller doors, I'll have to revamp the gable end roller door to get a wider tractor in and if I had to get an umbrella to help shade me as I watched my uncles do for years then I'll have to do without a cab, but I can't buy an ol beater tractor with the front wheels pulling different directions whobbling back and forth..
if you guys think say the 966 was and remains a reliable unit, I'd rather wait for the right one to show and maybe see about giving it a new home, but something thats been looked after..I always feel you get what you pay for in most cases other than just a quick paint job..
So living up here in SW Ontario, there aren't the tractor numbers as there are in the US, so I might have to have one trucked up..What sized and type of attachment will i need, how many furrow plow and a 16' disk will work that tractor enough[/quote]
Charlie, You can use smaller implements than a tractor is able to pull too so don't count those out. My 1206 can pull a 20 foot plus disk but I have a 14 foot. I had that when I got the 1206. I just run 2 gears higher and less throttle to get my 4-5 MPH ground speed I want. And I'm not tearing up the disk.
Good tractors under the IH name for you would be 706/56 806/26/56 966 1066 1206/56 1466/56 and the 1566. All of those should be under that 20K figure and all of them were fairly good tractors. Don't just look at one unless there is some kind of connection.
Yea you can do it with an M but it's going to take some time and it's getting harder to find implements that small. I can buy a 4/5-16 plow for less than a 2 or 3 bottom 14 inch plow here, used. Smaller disks are getting almost impossible to find and I don't think I've seen a field cultivator you can use on an M for several years.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of David Brown - by Samuel Kennedy. I was born in 1950 and reared on my family’s 100 acre farm. It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
