On Monday the 27th of Feruary I took pictures and posted them along with a for sale ad on Syracuse's Craigslist the same day. Here is my desription of the first tractor. "1939 Farmall A Restored, sn. FAA2849 with cultivators (hand lift), hand start, magneto, new rear tires, fronts good implement tires, new spark plugs, tight steering"
Here is the description of the second tractor.
"Nice 1953 Farmall Super C sn. 177073, with 2 point hitch, 3 set of rear wheel wts., one set of front wheel wts., rear tires good at about 90%, fronts very good, Strong running engine (rebuilt with high altitude pistons) right angle drive for belt pulley (MAY have a pulley for it), 2 point hook for release, all lights work, good paint, comes with 2 bottom 2 point hitch plows, front blade (IH) with all mounting and lift attachments (rare), set of double ring tire chains."
