In todays world the H and M sized tractors of that era are about worthless. If you can find implements like cultivators or a plow they are wore out and some parts are NLA. In my area I know of no one doing any work other than playing in a garden with an H and of the 3 people with M's none use them much. I have one that is now regulated to hay wagons only. It may get used on the square baler this year but only for about 5 acres. Guy near me has one that stays hooked to his poo spreader year round. He keeps it because it's the tractor he started with. The other guy tries to cut and bale about 20 acres each year. He generally gets about 5 acres cut when it breaks down and he has a friend finish it for him. Heck we got guys around here who use small tractors for "yard tractors". Those are like the 856 IH in size or larger. Out west of me guys are running 150HP MFW "yard" tractors.
In their day the H's and M's were good tractors. Those guys who plow a lot of ground with them often worked sun up to sun down and later to get done. guy could still do it if they wanted to. Most of us like to relax in the evenings so bigger is better.
