First tractor I drove was an AC WD w/ a and clutch. It had a Kelley trip bucket loader on it, which I liked because my first name is Kelley.
The first Farmall I drove was a 656 gas w/ a Hesston stack hand bale hauler. It had 5 tines that slid under the bale and an arm on top that clamped down on it. If the bale was fresh, it would be fluffy and occassionally the top would slide off. Really made Dad ticked when I'd lose part of a bale going down the road. I then moved up to the 966 w/ a cab that I had to cultivate with. I HATED that job. Sweet potato vines + rear mounted cultivator + hot weather + good dinner + the drone of the motor = several empty spots in the field.... and later, one red A$$. The AC in the cab didn't work and you drove w/ the doors propped open and the back window cracked. The dust was horrible. Still have the 966, sans the cab. I love driving it now, mowing setaside w/ a 10' Woods mower.
