OK I'll give you the answer and a little history on this tractor.
It was a 2 105 White with a cab with all the goodies. Neil Armstrong did some promotional work for White when White tractors first came out and it was part of the deal. The dealership the tractor was sent to prepped the tractor for and delivered it to his farm in Ohio. Each year they went and serviced the tractor for him and kept it maintained. 4 years later the tractor only had a little over 100 hours on it and they wanted to sell it. A deal was made and it was sold, Mr Armstrong and his wife came over to the dealership to sign over the warranty card and paper work over to the new owner. The dealership still has this paper work in there files. The tractor is now on its 3rd owner and is still going. This is the tractor that Mr. Armstrong lost his finger to dismounting the tractor too fast.
So I guess this would be a rare tractor given its history. Bandit
