I know it's a long shot, but I attended a funeral yesterday at Memorial Park Cemetery. I saw a single wheel 400 LP cultivating right down the road a bit that sure resembled this one. Any chance it's the same one?

430 Deere with wide front and LP-fuel. Only 68 produced in this exact combo




John Deere BO (rare) equipped with (rare) Lindeman Crawler (tracks) conversion




John Deere R diesel with gasoline powered pony motor




Yeah, I don't know....

Allis Chalmers G. Most are AC-Orange in color, I don't know why this is milky brown



Don't know much, except it's built in Ohio, probably around 1940



Nice Deere Model A wheatland (standard)

Yessir!

Cool pictures. I enjoyed the time I spent teaching Ag, in particular the tractor restoration and the tractor technician contest.

There are some great history lessons in those tractors!

Canyon - would you be interested in a complete LA? I have a friend selling one.

Thank goodness I have resolution. I have spent three years on pins and needles, anxiety to the max, needing confirmation. LOL.

Nice collection of Farmalls; I'm glad this thread got a bump. It's a good one.

Thanks for posting these.

In reply to that Caterpillar 30-

I was on FB marketplace about a month ago and a late 1920s Caterpillar 2 Ton came up in poster Tom Doniphon's hometown. It had the signature single post type steering clutch lever replaced with more modern individual levers and I was trying to educate myself on what I was looking at and running the numbers on what a divorce was going to cost before I called TomD to go get it…. And *poof* it was gone.

That was a real blessing. I am not a smart guy and require the Almighty's intervention in this manner often.

No, thank you. Dad had a collection of over 20 tractors, and the only ones we kept were the L and a Gibson Super D2. If I had a secure covered space, I would have kept as many as possible. Here's a link to the auction, way back in 2013, Watch the auction video.

That being said, I do follow a Facebook group that covers those tractors. I can post it there if he would like, or he could join himself.

The John Deere tractor collecting area is pretty well populated. It's hard to find anything unique anymore. That's one of the reasons I have shifted my very limited collecting efforts to Gibson tractors, produced out of Seattle WA, and Longmont CO. They are sort of glorified garden tractors, so much cheaper and easier to store.

My super D2



A Gibson D of mine awaiting attention





So if someone has a lead on a Gibson, let me know.

Nice pictures! The Centaur is a new one on me.

Hey Canyon, my older brother says he knows where there's one in a barn NE of Victoria. I know that's a long haul for you, but I can put you in touch with him if you want to pursue it. He's a long time Ag teacher but retired 10-12 years ago

I would like to check it out. To be honest, it might have to be a special one to go that far to get.

However, if I don't want it, I would be willing to put the info up on the Gibson Tractor Facebook group, and try to find a buyer.

You can send me an email at my TexAgs username @hotmail.com

I could **** up my yard so bad with one of these bad boys

I sent you an email with contact info for my brother.
