Old Farmall Tractors

[Southern Elk]

This old tractor has been sitting under the shed at my grandparents’ place for as long as I can remember. I believe it’s a Farmall M. It belonged to my great grandfather. I would love to see it restored one day. Tractors and farm equipment have come a long way since then.

I grew up with an H, M, and Super M. Cool tractors for sure. Lots of nostalgia for me!

We had an M. I think every farm in the Midwest had one at one point or another. Followed by 4020 for a close 2nd.

I am still using my 1962 Massey 35. Hard to justify replacing it for my needs

I grew up on an M. Got used every day, cutting and raking hay, spraying, pulling manure spreader, you name it. Dad still has it and uses it, but only occasionally.

The one in the pictures is my mom’s family’s. My dad said his dad had a H and a Super C. He said the super C was good for cultivating with the plows right under you.

So true! Cousins/neighbors had a 4020, we just sold a 4520 and my dad is keeping the 3020diesel Powershift for me.

Those 4020s are worth a small fortune. Selling for more than they cost new.

Best all around chore tractor you could ever ask for. Theres a reason they are so sought after.
