As a lover of all tractors(i know please dont hate me),i know i am a wierdo i enjoy them all.but your channel is awesome and you know your stuff which the world needs more of regardless where you are.Thank you farmall fanatic!!!ANF!!
I know this guy personally, his work is top notch and he never built his tractors to sell. They are his passion. That 340/544 is EXTREMELY NICE with no $$$ spared on the build. Whoever drops the wheelbarrow full of cash for that tractor will not fully appreciate it until he gets it home and works it!
Your channel beings me back to my days if growing up as a dairy farmer that left the farm but his brother ran it( lazily, unfortunately) but farm life is in my roots I feel. I yearn for those days I spent on my uncles farm!!! My Dad took it over for 8 weeks when my uncle had an operation and in 4 to 5 weeks my Dad almost doubled his milk production cuz he kept the cows on a schedule. Me and my 3 sibling went every day at 530 am and pm and did that family farm PROUD. Sadly my uncle got alzheimers and his son took the farm to NY State and weve lost touch. Really thinking of a homestead when I retire at 65. Small scale 10 acres tops to grow all my own food til I cant do it anymore. Hoping it will encourage my youngest to leave suburbia to get back to nature and the old way of life !
A local farmer has a 340 diesel industrial with the loader and backhoe. It has had ALOT done to it. The story is it went to auction after it ran its course with the state. A young farmer bought it in 1987 from that auction. It was in very rough shape by 2000. It sat from 2000 - 2008 with a cracked head and messed up hydraulics. Then a farmer that could use it bought it in 08. He fixed the hydraulics and got it to run. He ran it with a cracked head until it blew in 2014. sold it to The feller that owns it today. It spun a rod baring when it blew. The guy that bought it (Jim ) is a machinist. He fixed the head rebuilt it from head to toe. It runs great now just needs paint.
Last summer I did some work on my neighbor's 340 gas wide front love that tractor, My brother in law has a 340 crawler runs great but very hard to find parts on drive train, rollers and track parts. Neither one of them guys will sell them, I keep telling them they would look alot better in my barn lol👍
Nice to see the 340 . Dad had one when I was 4. It was a diesel and he had a mounted corn picker with sheller. He would go around neighborhood and pick and shell a farmers wagon full to feed off and come back to refill when empty. As I remember it was a galvanized IH picker. 1959 and I was barely 4. Got into 150 bushel corn which was unheard of then. First gear with torque back and still had to slip the clutch. Checked crank case oil after lunch and it was a gallon high. Pulling so hard fuel was washing down cylinder walls. Traded for a 460 on the spot.
Wow! The 560! That is set up the exact way I’m looking at setting up my 560. Wide front, big front tires and square fenders. If I wasn’t a thousand miles away...... 🤔
Nice to see I have a Aw-6 front-end loader with cast/forged arms, a A554 front forklift with 3 point linkage and a stand A554. I just found my late father's 454hydro and rear mount forklift, and I have a SAME 105 tiger export. My mother still has her 384 international she bought new in 1976
I knew the Farmall 340 Diesels were rare, but I didn't know they were that rare. The 460 utility tractor would be great on your 311 plow. Most 706 tractors had the C-263 engines. The 291 came out when the D-310 was used in the Diesels. That Industrial 340 is also a rare find. That's a nice tractor the 340 sheet metal on the 544.
I’ll watch this in it’s entirety later on I’m working on a guys hydraulics on his JD industrial tractor! Had a Farmall 350 diesel once! 340 sounds awesome! Hell they all look great! 544 is a dream! Guess I’m going to have to go east some to find a Farmall!
@@FarmallFanatic yeah that will be interesting! And you taking one home ? Oh yeah you’ll have to cut the mattress open for that stowed away cash supply LOL!!!
Learned how to plow with a 340 gas pulled 2-16 fast hitch. Dad bought it mainly for us kids hooking up the rake. We had the jack style with the fast hitch there was no lifting the rake up on the draw bar.
I had a feeling it was a 340D 😂 They seem like very nice machines!! I've seen two on TractorHouse for 5k, I the the 544 will sell for about 8,000 and the 340D will sell for 6,500
@@BarnyardEngineering yeah true, but like i said, i've seen two on tractorhouse that were less than 20k, and he probably didn't want to sell it at the time. But who knows it could go to 30k
We still have both a 540 diesel and gas that my grandpa and dad purchased new from the local iH dealer here in minnesota we also have a 460 diesel with a factory 3 point hitch
Glad I got to see that 340. Have never seen one, saw that it was a direct start Diesel. It would be well worth what you said, but it's more than I could afford. Even has the 27° rear tires. Are you going to bid on it? I have a 300 Utility Fast Hitch & T/A that I really like, but I'm hoping to trade for a Row-Crop 300 or 350/400/450 with a narrow front to put my Dad's loader on. Right now it's on my H. Agree with the comment on the 544. What would you do with your other big tractor if you scored that? 80 h.p. is nothing to sneeze at.
The 544 with the 340 sheet metal looks great, I would just change the badge back to 544 . If you don't come home with something from this sale, then that means everything went for an outrageous amount of money
This looks like it is going to be a great auction. I will be disappointed if you don't come home with at least one of those fantastic tractors, just saying lol
the 340D has to be one of the few and proud IH D166 engine is a great engine just a 4 cylinder version of the d236 or 282 if memory serves lol. IH had put the diesels in the TD version for a few years and those tend to even be rare to find a track version. I would go for the industrial version hands down just cause it has to be the super rare.. Its a shame with that fleetline look from the 460/5 that gave them all a bad rap with the rear end failures . IH had a good way with the little diesels parts were common and they were all easy to work on . i would throw out 15,000 for the 340D .. as for the industrial i gotta have one lol
@@FarmallFanatic its has to be added to the list of very rare along the IH 4300 and the super 70s 2 + 2 I was lucky as a kid in the late 80s to drive the super 70 and the New Farmall AKA super 90 series
The 188 in the 504 is the 4 cylinder version of the D-282. The 166 is not quite as short of stroke as the 236 if I remember right. The bore and the stroke is the same on the 236.
I think the 340 tractor is the only tractor I have seen you drive with a nearo front end. Would you own a tractor with a nearo front? Nice tractors by the way!!!!!👍👍👍👍
@@FarmallFanatic yes and no it doesn’t have power steering and the steering bearings are worn out and it takes two people to steer it with no load but the tractor is good and the loader is good so we are going to restore the tractor and put the loader on a international 444 Diesel with power steering
The 340s' are nice. The 544 is a nice tractor no matter what the sheet metal is. I want performance and that 544 looks like it's a performer. Price: 340- $22,000, 544- $14,000. 2 nice tractors. 157 is not many. Rarity sells.
Rarity sells but it depends on where you're at. And also it depends on what it is. A super MTA is considered a " rare" Tractor. But there were almost double of those produced as Super W-6s combined (Stage 1, 2 and Super W-6TA) Yet, the SMTA will consistently outsell the Super W-6 and Super W-6TA tractors.
