Standard Catalog of Farm Tractors 1890 to 1960 You could say that interest in collecting vintage farm tractors is plowing ahead, but that would be an understatement. Interest is actually racing forward! You could say these tractors are a ton of fun, but they are actually "tons" of iron-giant fun. Vintage tractors, once viewed as useless relics of days gone by, are now looked upon in a different light. Collectors and historians alike are buying these "iron horses" to restore them to their original pride and power.

Farmall Tractors by
Lee Klancher "Perhaps it's because the tractors are elemental, incredibly well-built, and timeless. Perhaps it's just the fact that the people are a good lot. Whatever the reason, tractor restoration is pretty much what you make it; most people won't pick your freshly restored tractor apart for painting the impulse coupler retaining clip the wrong color or some other nonsense. It's more casual: "Hey Vern, ya' forgot ta' put on yer' magneto but, hey, she looks great!"
Farmall Tractors in the 1950s Just as International introduced cutting edge technology and posted phenomenal sales numbers with its Farmall tractors prior to World War II, they continued to make waves in the 1950s by cleverly repackaging existing technology. In addition to covering the development and evolution of the Farmall Cub, this all-color slice of tractor history examines everything from subtle styling changes to the demise of the long-running Letter Series and the rise of the Number Series all the way through the 650 industrial model.
