THA MAN!
Yes it is.
Thank you both. We will be selling a few of them on online auctions this summer. Have to make room for some more, we're out of barn space, and hate to keep building barns for toys. Time to pick out what we really want!

It will probably be a few pieces at a time as we can get them out. We aren't exactly sure how we're going to to do it yet. But I will make sure I post it here and let you guys know!

Lost in the sauce
Chris I won't even begin to act like I know much about tractors of any kind. The only time I drove them was bush-hogging dads field or breaking stuff trying to help the local farmer when I was younger. What I do know is I have always loved checking these things out. Some of these I have seen at local shows I think, like the one above. I am originally from Warren county there in Ohio. Next time I come home and have time I may have to stop by and check these things out in person. I have a buddy who would literally pay you for 20 mins in the corner of your barn and a box of tissues. LOL I know it has been said but I will say it again, Thank you very much for posting these pictures.

Overfueled? Maybe?
I know exactly how that feels! LOL
I just got my John Deere-Holt 430-3T forklift out to get pictures of it for Polk's Labor Day Auction. It has sat in the same spot in the barn since 2011 and been untouched. Time for it to leave. LOL I think that might be my new rule - if it sits untouched and "un-thought about" for 24 months straight get rid of it.....

Wish I had some shed space and I would take that 430 off of your hands before Polks. haha

Lots of people wish they had it. lol That is why I consigned it - so someone else CAN have it. lol
I'm trying to decide if I want to further downsize the collection..... I'm getting down to just the cool stuff. The only things I have left is the beautiful all original 330U, 630LP Standard, 730LP Standard, 730 cutaway display tractor plus parts tractor for restoring it, and a mid year 1934 D that has the big motor and the old trans.

Hey douche - come out for a visit and bask in all the glory of open workspace and storage that I have. There are only 4 trucks and 2 tractors in the main shop now. LOL The last time you were out there were probably 20 tractors and 4 trucks in there - and it was a different 4 trucks!

A Load of high crop tractors. I forget where we took them. One of the shows, Findlay Oh maybe.
AC D17 Diesel Thompson Highcrop, AC 8030 High Crop, AC 190XT Diesel Highcrop, AC 175 Diesel High Clear. The high clear only has 7" additional clearance, not 13". Different crops

McCormick Deering WK-40
Oliver Super 77 Industrial/Military. We figured out it was all 24v Military when we went to sell it, but assumed it was industrial. It's sold now.
Closer to the 190XT Highcrop. We sold this one now, found one nicer. We had this one about 20 years.
Cockshutt 570 Diesel. Dad buys some because he thinks they're cheap, so we have to weed them out from time to time. This one was on the short list. It was nice, just had a couple of them.

Oliver 2255 FWA with the factory cast center duals. We are finally getting around to putting the duals on all the tractors we have now. Going to be 14 or so with duals.
White 2-155 FWA, Oliver 2255 FWA, Minneapolis Moline G1000 Vista FWA. The Vista is waiting on the duals. One of 56 or so built I think. Not many.
The newer AC 190XT HighCrop, and the AC 8030 HighCrop. The 8030 has been repowered with a Deutz Air Cooled diesel, and we just haven't had time to make it original yet.
Cockshutt 1600 Wheatland, Oliver 990, Oliver 880 Diesel

The bigger tractors in our Minneapolis Moline collection...big cubes in these engines.
G950 that will be getting duals, G1050, G1355 with duals, and a Plainsman A4T-1600
G1355 and Plainsman...585 CID each, a whopping 145hp each. Non-turbo
AC D17 LPG Wheatland. Special wide fenders, and a wider track. One of the rarer of the AC D Series tractors.
I think that's all for a couple days. Have a couple large engines for you guys to see, as soon as I can get good pictures of them.

Great stuff! I could look at pics of your collection all day. (Unfortunately it's time to bale hay). How often do you start those tractors?
