My wife told me I need to sell one of my tractors to make room for my grandfathers 22-36 McCormick Deering. I agreed, I only have four total and all at my dads. This is the part I cant understand (I do not want to offend any color blind collector (my father one them), so I will say sorry now -- sorry). I posted and heard very little on the add. I have an Oliver Hart Parr 70 that runs for 1200 I'll take 1000. From what I have read it was a big part of the tractors turning point into the styled, streamlined, visionline etc. workhorses of the late 30's and early 40's. I do not feel I am way out there in left field with my pricing. Looking through the ads I wonder how the pricing got so high $2600 for a JD A or even a JD B. I have noticed at one time or another a Farmall H for over 4000. I have just started with my tractors 4 years ago and have seen an increase in price. I am 29 and can remember my father buying a '50 JD A for 350 and saying he paid to much for it (a running tractor). I saw a "low priced" A for 1250 that was stuck. The saddest part is I know people are paying these prices well over what the tractors are still worth. Also what happened to how a tractor runs instead of what kind of paint you put on it and how many layers of clearcoat? Thank you for taking the time to read this I feel slightly better typing and posting this Thank You

Identifying Tractor Smells - by Curtis Von Fange. We are continuing our series on learning to talk the language of our tractor. Since we can’t actually talk to our tractors, though some of the older sect of farmers might disagree, we use our five physical senses to observe and construe what our iron age friends are trying to tell us. We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS
