A good friend and I where just talking yesterday about this. I think many of our old tractors will not be worth much in the years to come. Not many of the younger guys grew up with them and don"t have the interest. Plus these younger guy don"t have the income to collect them with raising a family these days.
We are reminiscing about a time gone by. We also have selective memory about it too. My first tractor was JD "G", no power steering or three point hitch. I was not sad the day it when down the road after I replaced it with a JD 3020. If you had to use our old iron day in and day out it would not be as fun. The newer tractors are better/handier to use. Just having a good three point is a real blessing.
Already the more common tractors are dropping in value. You can buy good restored John Deere letter series for under $2500 around here all day long. The little Fords and MF are holding better because of them having three point. Look at what IH M"s and H"s are going for. I was at a sale yesterday where two real nice running IH M"s did not break a grand each. I should have bought the one as it had good 15.5 x38 tires on it. I could have used the set on a JD 2520 I have.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
