I saw the post below about a F-20 for $450. It was just in fence row condition. That got me to wondering how many of these old tractors will be left for long. The high scrap price coupled with larger farms clearing everything out. So will there be many fence row finds in the future???
I drive around looking for that type of stuff and there is very little of it left here in Iowa.
There is a finite amount of this stuff left. The salvage yards with old tractors are getting fewer and fewer. So where will a fellow get the old parts for restoring many of these tractors in the future???
I know the old average stuff is lossing people that are interested. The main stream collectors are moving on to newer stuff.
I enjoy going to show and seeing an F-12 or F-20/30. I really could careless about a IH 706/806 or JD 3010/JD 4020. I farm with those type of tractors so they hold little interest at shows to me.
Will we have many of these fence row tractors in the future??? Not going to be many JD 8000 series or CIH Magnum tractors in the fence rows of the future.
Remember that old F-20 was someone's "BIG" tractor when it was new. So what will the future tractor look like in a hundred years???

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
