Saw this old lichen encrusted Farmall Regular outside a business that restores tractors and equipment. I don't know if it will be restored or parted out to fix other tractors. Tough looking old girl: magneto missing, cracked exhaust manifold, no pulley wheel, platform and mounting bracket of the PTO standardizer is missing, cut-off rear steel - but nice lugs though!.
Just thought it was really neat (wish I could have photographed it "in the wild" where they found it). Have never encountered anything with so many lichens! I think it would be fun to see her running, but still looking as if just drug out of the tractor bone yard.
Someone did paint the carburetor silver! Upon closer examination - it kind of looked as if the entire tractor had been painted silver at one time. Maybe a farmer with paint left over from a tin roof or tin shed...only the tractor knows for sure. :)
Serial number is #108625. I think it was produced in the end of May 1930. I got the date from Harold Sohner's site about his 1927 Farmall Regular restoration - interesting site, a lot of info technical info on Regulars. He does not sell anything - just a lot of good info.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
