A long time ago, I had a late A - probably a 51, Used it on the manure spreader in the winter as it started good in below zero weather. Also had a WD it was a 6 volt and didn't use it much as it started poorly in any weather. Also had a WD45 12 volt. Never used either plowing, but the A got a lot more use- good power and a reliable tractor. Had a D17 for plowing - traded it in for a JD 2030 - first new tractor purchased - it was a good buy. Going back more years - Dad had a JD G which i still have. I can remember him working on it one winter, but was too young to know what he did to it- only that it raised the horsepower quite a bit. The next door neighbor had a Case- don't remember the number - mid or late 50's. It was a heavy tractor - had a big solid looking engine. However, Dad and the G could out plow it easily. Can't compare fuel economy though as the G stood for guzzler. Later, another neighbor had an International 560, i think - can remember it sitting in the field for a long time before they got it hauled away for repairs. Rand (taking a trip down memory lane)
