Yep, WD-9 started on Gas and switched over to diesel.IH made them in really big displacements too, 400-500, biggest was 1090 Cid in the TD-24. They were not a high output engine, the DT-817 in the TD-25 outperformed it.
Dad bought a Deere R just before Christmas 1963, got the matching Deere 4-14 plow too which the really struggled to pull, I pulled the IH #8 3-14 most of the time. Dad had the 2 cyl Deere diesel tuning wiz tune the R up before we hooked it to anything. Yep, just what every 10 year old kid wanted in 1963, an R diesel while most of my buddy's had 4010's and 4020's. The R was gone by mid-April, the FARMALL SUPER M-TA plowed the last 16 acres with the Deere 4-14 plow. And the M-TA did all the prep for planting, and cultivating. A FARMALL 450 gas replaced the M-TA spring of '65, a REAL 4-BOTTOM tractor. When Midwest plow harrow got popular Dad parked the 4-14 IH Fast-Hitch plow and bought a CASE 4-14 and mounted a Midwest Harrow on it, it really made for a nice seeded. Ran that 450 thru fall of 1968, took the 1963 4010 D to the field spring of '69. It was a REAL disappointment, any day it was still running to get you back to the barn was considered a good day. I walked home more days than I care to admit.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Field Marshall Series 1 - by Anthony West. I had been restoring tractors for several years, and over that time had aquired a varied collection of machines of all ilk. I had started on Fordsons both standard and major, and from there progressed as my skills and knowledge increased. It had always been my ambition to own one of the rare types of tractor. The sort of machine that was eagerly talked about at meetings and gloated over lovingly at shows. One such machine was Field Marshall, I had heard many men talk of this machine with a p ...
