Some of us grew up the older tractors. Farmall, Oliver, Moline, Allis, etc. In the 50s & early 60s a lot of farms had tractors in the 30 - 50 hp range. Each brand had its good & bad points.
The question: If you could build one of these from scratch, which features from which brand would you use? Which engine (gas or diesel?) Which tranny-how many gears? Ford style 3pt., Eagle hitch, Fast hitch, etc. Wide front or tricycle?
Personally, I like the Case Eagle hitch and the Case Tripl-Range(12speed)tranny with the Massey live pto & Perkins diesel engine. Adjustable wide front end. Thanks.
